DeepDub

A dub delay with real tape and BBD character — echoes that bloom, duck, and sing.

DeepDub plugin interface

Overview

DeepDub is an echo with a personality. Switch between warm tape, gritty bucket-brigade (BBD), and clean digital character, lock to your session tempo, and ride the feedback from tight slapback into blooming, self-oscillating clouds. A state-variable filter sits inside the feedback loop, a saturator keeps runaway repeats musical, and an envelope-follower ducks the echoes under your dry signal so the mix stays clear. Rooted in dub and reggae, it's equally at home smearing vocals, drums, and synths across bass music, techno, and hip-hop.

Features
