1. Pedal needs a volume control which means I have to design a new PCB + more components which means I have to up the price some.
2. Since I have to draw up a new board for this I figured I might as well throw in a switch to select octave to increase the value. -1 Octave, Regular pitch, +1 Octave.
3. TIME knob has two functions; 0-50% = increase delay time up to 1 second. 50-100% = do granular time stretch from regular speed to freeze
4. REPETAS knob has two functions; 50-0% = Direct feedback (ascending pitch). 50-100% = Looping feedback with stable pitch
5. Still no sound demo. Will try again next week
It previously seemed like a fun novelty but these features seem fantastic.

One thing I've noticed with the sample playback patches on the Fabrikat is that there's some latency between when the first note is struck and when the effected sound starts. It makes sense as you're filling up the buffer but is that something that this will be subject to, as well?

If you consider a tape delay where you have a constantly moving "Read"-head while the "Write"-head is stationary the amount of delay will always be changing (as well as the manner in which the audio is played back). This is the case for all the Fabrikat programs (and this reverse delay) as long as you do any kind of "Read"-head manipulation.

Nice!

"Granular Reverse Delay" makes me think "Against The Grain Delay" and I like thinking that way.
