These changes in playback speed have multiple
simultaneous effects. If you’re pitch shifting
downwards, what you’re really doing is slowing
down the delay time. This means the repeats
will also become more spaced out, and the
quality of the echoes will be more gritty and
noisy. Inversely, pitching upwards will produce
more clear, tightly packed echoes.
It’s like a sequence with built-in variance. Each
step has its own character, delay time, and
pitch, all changing at once.
Thanks time shifting!
Time Shifting 101
Thermae creates melodies
by changing delay time.
It’s a unique approach that changes the pitch,
texture, and sense of space all at once.
Here’s why it happens:

Most analog delays work this way, but Thermae’s
secret is that it changes the delay time in precise
amounts that end up producing harmonic, pitch
shifting intervals.
In order to create
echoes, sound is
recorded to a BBD chip.
When the delay time is
changed, that sound is
slowed down or sped
up along with it.
