What is The Time Modulator?

CONTROL TIME ITSELF! - with The Marshall Time Modulator (now in a
convenient, cross-platform plug-in size!)

Once in a while something is created that is so good, so unbelievably
useful, it becomes "timeless"...

The Marshall Time Modulator is one of those creations. Before there was
much "digital" anything, and before records were considered something
anachronistic and nostalgia evoking, back when "Dark Side of the Moon" was
new and Hip-Hop kind of a distant dream, Stephen St. Croix had an idea:
What would happen if you took the the longest analog delay line possible,
gave it the greatest signal to noise ratio in a piece of outboard gear, and
then made the modulation of it possible over such a wide range that it
could effect sound in ways sublime AND outrageous. Something so utilitarian
and necessary that it could fit in equally well on Stevie Wonder's "Songs
in the Key of Life," or as the means of giving extra gravitas to the sound
of a bad acid trip. Stephen called it: The Marshall Time Modulator. You'll
call it "indispensable".

Features:

We.ll say this much: there is no flange like it, and hasn.t been for the
past 25 years.

Two separate delay lines, in a ratio of 1:2 or 1:4., each with their own
volume, phase and pan controls and a joint feedback control.

Once modulation is added, the ratios between the delay lines don.t change,
but together the delay lines can be continuously swept over the range from
minimum to maximum time over the LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) rate. This
is a function of the interaction between the Time Delay, Preset, Time
Modulation, LFO Shape and LFO Speed parameters working together.

from subtle thickening, to reverb loving "spin", to the sound of vinyl left
out on the hood of an '84 Camaro in the Black Rock Desert in the last week
of August, The Marshall Time Modulator has all the bases covered - and then
some.
