I don’t produce dub music, but the sound is candy to my ears, so I know I had to incorporate some of these raw, spacey elements in my own productions.īack then you could only use them in Ableton Live. Back then, Ableton asked Surreal Maschines to develop a pair of Max for Live delay effects that could emulate classic analog gear like the tape echo from the 70s. I’ve been using the previous version of Dub Machines from the day it was released. They are called Dub Machines and are a set of delay plugins by talented developers Surreal Machines. Today I want to talk to you about one of my secret weapons. The truth is, that while analog equipment has its charm and instant knob tweaking capabilities, their digital counterparts have gotten better and better at providing rich analog models and digital effects. Traditionally you would deck out your studio with vintage gear like the Roland 201 Space Echo. Here’s a mix by Subatomic Sound System putting the Dub Machines Modnetic & Diffuse to good use: It’s a sound shaping tool that sends you on a powerful hallucinogenic trip and turns you from sound engineer into a sort of shaman.
In music, especially in dub, the delay is often so much more than a filter.
