PAST AND FUTURE COMBINED

True to the Diamond design ethos of our dBBD’s hybrid analog architecture, Dark Cloud unlocks a new frontier in delay technology unobtainable by standard BBD circuits. 

Powered by an embedded system, the Dark Cloud seamlessly blends input and output signals, crafting Tape, Harmonic, and Reverse delays with the organic warmth of analog companding and the meticulous precision of digital control. 

DIGITAL BUCKET BRIDGAGE TECHNOLOGY  

Combining the character of analog Companding and Anti-Aliasing with an embedded system delay line, the Dark Cloud flawlessly delivers the warmth and charm of an analog delay while offering three distinct and creative delay modes.

THREE DISTINCT AND CREATIVE DELAY MODES

Inspired by the Counter Point, this mode delivers a warm, saturated delay with tape-like warble due to its perfectly synced modulation and up to 1000ms of delay time.

A favorite from Quantum Leap, it creates either a delayed octave or fifth above the input signal. The analog feedback acts like a harmonic tone control, creating enchanting upward spirals like musical lightning in a dark sky.

This new feature plays a classic delay backward, offering a smooth and LoFi reversed delay with an expanded time range. The analog feedback causes the repeats to alternate between reversed and forward playback, like echoes bouncing through a stormy canyon.
