Dubby "this is the ultimate music tool" by Componental // DivKid Discussion Machina Bristronica 2024

You might remember Dubby from this set of Machina Bristronica videos.

"Back at Superbooth I was pleasantly surprised to see a quadrophonic dub delay called Dubby, learning that it could work in quad, dual stereo, 4x mono or a whole range of flexible FX routings sounded great. Fast forward to Machina Bristronica for the DivKid Discussion (on the DivKid stage!) I had the pleasure of sitting down for a conversation and demo of Dubby with Rasmus from Componental. Here's that discussion.

Dubby is currently live on Kickstarter at the time of publishing with around a week to go. If you'd like to support it (it's well over funding, so it's happening already) here it is // https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/..."


"Dubby is a powerful, standalone device designed to simplify the creative process and put you in full control of your sound - whether you're just starting out or you're an experienced musician. With no computer needed, just plug-and-play.

Perfect for singers, producers, instrumentalists, and modular synth enthusiasts alike, Dubby fits seamlessly into your workflow. Its intuitive, hands-on controls make it fun to explore new sounds, from quadraphonic effects to custom synths. Whether you're jamming at home, recording in the studio, or performing live, Dubby gives you the freedom to personalise your music-making experience, allowing you to map and control every parameter your way.

And with Dubby’s open platform, you can even customise both the hardware and software, unlocking endless possibilities for creativity and exploration.

Immediate Immersion and Flow: Dubby works out of the box and is set up to be a fun and engaging music device, either as an audio effect, synthesizer, or music tool.

Endless Possibilities: Upload new audio effects and synthesisers directly from the Dubby App Store, accessible through a web browser, making Dubby a versatile addition to any setup.

Tactile Interface: Designed with musicians in mind, Dubby features an intuitive hardware interface with select controls for seamless interaction during live performances or studio sessions.

Fully Stand-Alone Functionality: Dubby can run advanced real-time audio algorithms, freeing you from the computer. Take your favourite effects, synths, and tools out of the box!

Quadrophonic Sound: Experience immersive, high-fidelity audio with Dubby's quadrophonic capabilities.

Customisable and Programmable: Tailor Dubby to your specific needs by swapping side panels to your liking. Choose between faders, buttons, and expression / footswitch jacks. With programming in popular languages like Max/MSP Gen~, Pure Data (coming), and C++, you can modify existing algorithms or create entirely new ones."

he calls it: delayf**ker - Power Glitch - Sonic State Demo at Machina Bristonica

video upload by Componental

"The delayf**ker is a performance effect that pushes digital echo to its limits, with real-time manipulations getting ‘stuck’ in the feedback loop for dynamic sound-on-sound edits. It delivers rich, glitchy audio textures, ranging from Karplus-Strong and micro-looping to traditional echo and chorus. With control over delay time, feedback, and buffer freezing, you can experiment on the edge of stability for unique sonic outputs. Despite its experimental nature, it's highly versatile, offering sounds from subtle to chaotic, for live or studio use."



Early Bird Price: €456
