Manifold Research Centre's Ubique sets two distinct micro time modulation cores in a spiral dance, providing a feedback phase network of flanger and phaser for entangled explorations.
At the left side, a BBD based flanger explores the timbral manipulation of short delay times, with time spans ranging from 5-250ms.
At its opposite is a 10-stage transistor ladder phaser, creating shifting harmonic movements and self-oscillating at high settings. The flanger's output sums into the input of the phaser, which can then be sent back into the flanger using the central feedback slider, inviting an infinite loop of audio processing. When combined and carefully managed alongside the two effect-specific feedback controls, these three opportunities for nonlinear gain management unveil a vast sonic landscape. Here, metallic tones, full spectrum percussive punctuations, and harmonic screams of distorted delight await your inspired patching.
As for patching, independent audio inputs and outputs allow for summing diverse signals within the temporal torrent, and create unique stereo effects with output signals tapped from distinct processing positions in the loop. Manual and CV controls on each core for frequency and resonance, with attenuverters for the frequency CV inputs, allow you to shift and mangle the feedback processing with external signals.
The BBD's dry/wet control and a phase invert switch for the phaser provide even more ways to manage and manipulate Ubique, with each interaction inviting new avenues of sound design.
