At its foundational core, EKKO is a clean digital delay with all the features you’d expect, but with some tricks up its sleeves. With a 1-minute delay time and sync functionality, plus a unique weighted ping-pong and clean 12dB filters, echoes are precise and flexible – just as capable of subtle spatial widening as it is of long, evolving ambient tails. Whether you’re after tight rhythmic repeats or expansive, washy textures, EKKO delivers the fundamentals with clarity before twisting them into something far more unexpected.

Where EKKO starts clean, it quickly wears down. With cassette-inspired Wow, Flutter, and Saturation from our Drift cassette engine, your repeats can dissolve into a beautifully unstable haze. Whether you want subtle pitch drift or full-on warble, EKKO’s decay controls let you dial in just the right amount of vintage imperfection. Push the saturation to add warmth, texture, and harmonic grit – or pull it back for a pristine path.

EKKO was built to break its own rules. Activate Scramble to randomly scramble the delay buffer at tempo-synced intervals, then use Fade to morph those fragments into blooming tremolo-like pulses. Flip the live buffer direction for instant reversed echoes, or freeze it in place to capture loops that you can then scramble. This is where EKKO steps beyond delay – into a tool for creative disassembly.
