An analogue-inspired delay and ambience processor built around the unmistakable character of classic Bucket Brigade Device (BBD) chips.

Inspired by a legendary 1980s BBD delay and ambience processor, PSP BBDelay delivers warm repeats, organic movement and musical imperfections. Modelled BBD chips, compander behaviour and analogue circuit imperfections make each repeat evolve with texture and life. With transient shaping, ducking, gating, saturation, modulation, tone shaping and chip variation, it moves from vintage echoes and lush ambience to experimental soundscapes. Mono, Dual Mono, Ping-Pong and Reverb modes offer delay times up to 800 ms, or 1600 ms in x2 mode.
