    I can't explain into words but it's basically a stock-based self-fed drum rack return chain using deactivated limiters which generate plugin latency between each individual instance.

    In other words “tonal delay with a grainy feeling” or “comb PM with increasing feedback as the frequency goes down”
    Edit 2: it's a basic delay



    for the reference it can be also done in CamelPhat / Phat FX:

    Thank you! It sounds great! But the video resolution is low and i cannot see what really you are doing

    When you’re going to discover the delay, you’re prolly going to be mindblown

    Not exactly time-stretching, just short simple delays, but a neat trick.

    That’s what plugin latency adds: delay. It is because the 3 ms lookahead of the Limiter. But I changed the description so it’s more accurate. Thank you
