<p><em>Added to AU/VST FX :</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.valhalladsp.com/plugins.html"><strong>ValhallaFreqEcho</strong></a><br />
<em> Bode-style frequency shifter + analog echo emulation</em></p>
<p>Bode-style frequency shifter + analog echo emulation = skull melting chaos.</p>
<p>Sonic results range from subtle chorusing and double tracking, to barberpole phasing and flanging, to runaway echos spinning through your skull, to endless glissandos. Perfect for those Dr. Who sounds, dub, and all of your psychedelic needs.</p>
<p>GUI sometime in the future, with more controls, finer tuning abilities.</p>
