MOTM Blacet Time Machine


via Mark

"I have a Blacet Time Machine in MOTM format built on a custom Stooge panel for sale. While I do not think Time Machines are truly rare, they are definitely synth.

Although what might particularly interest your readers is that this analogue delay has a knob that controls the amount of input aliasing. It ranges from the original filtering to bypassing the filter completely. With basic waveforms it adds inharmonics that appear below the fundamental. When used with more complex signals combined with feedback it adds dark spooky undertones that shift around.

Afaik, this is the only Time Machine that has such a feature.

Yet I don't like the way the compander circuit is designed. It effects the dynamics of the signal in ways I personally find undesirable. No doubt it contributes to the module's unique sound that many people love. I've tried living with it, but it's just not for me.

There is more description and some pictures here"
