"Eternal v2 is a barber-pole flanger effect designed and developed by Sinevibes. Available as AAX/AU/VST plugin for Mac and Windows. Product page: https://www.sinevibes.com/eternal"

"Eternal is a barber-pole flanger effect plugin. Unlike a traditional flanger which has its tone repeatedly go up and down, a barber-pole flanger goes upwards or downwards in a seemingly endless fashion. To accomplish this unique effect, Eternal employs a thoroughly calibrated low-frequency oscillator with six output signals which modulate and crossfade three flangers – and they do this in a very special way. Since these oscillators have a “through-zero phase” design, Eternal can go from downwards to upwards motion and back completely seamlessly. With two distinct timbres available thanks to positive or negative feedback, this plugin produces a wide variety of delicious spectrum sweeps – plus unusual chorus, pitch shift, and stereo widening effects.

ESK - Akai MPC X with Beats FM Radio Loops

video upload by Metunar

"Here i made a kind of radio soundscape jam.
The Akai MPC X has 8 stereo audiotracks. I recorded into them some radio loops from the X Audio Systems Beats FM (Radio/Filter/Delay unit). The added drumbeat is from a Yamaha RX15 drumcomputer.
With the Q-Link encoders on the MPC X i control the level of the 8 audiotracks and some effects as well.
Direct stereo recording with mastering.
