Soundghost released EKKO, a cassette-inspired delay plugin that combines vintage tape characteristics with modern digital processing. The software generates warm, saturated echoes and warped, chaotic reflections through dedicated tape emulation algorithms. Engineers designed the interface with minimal visual elements while maintaining comprehensive delay controls and stereo panning capabilities. The Scramble function randomly repositions the delay playhead to create fragmented rhythmic patterns and scattered ambient textures. This feature draws inspiration from the company's Jumble sampler technology.
EKKO supports one minute of delay time with cassette-style degradation effects and pitch imperfections through Flutter and Wow parameters. Users can manipulate the delay buffer through flip and freeze functions while applying 12-decibel octave filtering for frequency shaping. The plugin operates on Windows 8 systems and macOS 10.12 platforms through VST3 and AU formats with native Apple Silicon optimization. MIDI automation enables real-time parameter control during performance and production sessions. The software currently sells for £29 as an introductory offer before returning to £39.
