About
Chronos shapes a sound in time with the beat. It has three lanes you draw: volume for sidechain pumping and gates, a filter sweep, and time, which replays the recent past to slow, stop, stutter or reverse it.
Each lane has its own shape and length, from a sixteenth to four bars. They run from your project's transport, or retrigger on MIDI notes or on hits in the audio.
51 presets for sidechain pumps, gates, tremolo, filter motion, time effects, builds and combinations.
