pitching is normal behaviour .. or to be more exact this is how it usually sounds - most delays even on hardware synths behave this way when you change delay length during it is processing sound... i remember korg MS2000 had exaclty same bahaviour .. same with analog delay on Korg Monologue and many other synths i had ..
of course there are delays optimalised for exactly this particular purpose (to not pitch when time is modulated) - i guess they are using some kind of pitchshifting / time stretching algorythm to compensate pitch shifting of sound when delay length is altered ...
On other side, on many delays (even on HW synths!) altering delay time during playback leads to even lot worse artifacts than just pitching - clicks, cracks, stuff like that .. I like this pitching effect, it's actually creative tool, especially for psychedelic music
btw. here it is, just a bit tweaked, with delay decay automated, starting with short interval and ending with long

Hmm, come to think of it, you’re right about changing hardware delay times live and getting the same pitching affect on the sound.
My bad!
If it only did! That's the thing, it does not alter pitch so I wonder what else would be musically useful in modulating the delay time. Your audio example (thanks for recording it!) shows very well how bad it sounds now.
Nothing against having the choice. The delay has a number of switchable modes so both could be included.
It's the same process as an old analogue tape delay. You change the delay time by changing the playback speed of the tape and thus change the pitch. Anything already on the tape will therefore be pitched up or down when you change delay time. If you turn off feedback, as soon as the tape loop is 'clear' of the old delays the pitches of the delays will be back to 'normal' and match the source as they were recorded at the same speed the tape is playing back at.
Many digital delays work in exactly the same way. They sample the audio and change the playback speed when the delay time is altered. The change in pitch is the already sampled audio being played back at a different rate and therefore pitch (just like playing a sample up and down the keyboard).
Echo opera with the inspirational posts.
Had a question...well, actually 2.
1.Electribe Wave vs Gadget Electribe Wave? Would Gadget be a substitute for this workflow?
The apps I'm thinking of using is Nanostudio 2 + Gadget 2. Maybe Audiobus for the switching window.
If your can get your Patches to sound the same in Gadget, then in Gadget.
I don’t like making music on the iPhone that much.
NS2 is pretty great as a sequencer so blessed hat should work nicely.
@Samflash3
I would say that Gadget cannot replace the Microfreak but NS2 plus the Spectrum AUv3 bundle plus E.Wave plus the powerful Obsidian synth mostly can.
I totally disagree. Xequence 2’s built-in FX are the lightest on CPU that I’ve seen on iOS, far more so than NS2’s or any other DAW for that matter. And the sound quality? It’s indescribable!
On the internet nobody can tell when you're being sarcastic...
@cian
This was sarcasm. And good one, he nailed it, i like it !!
I got it, you got it. Others who may be less familiar with Xequence's capabilities might not...
True. But wouldn't Nanostudio 2 be able to host Spectrum as an AUv3? And also, multitrack and Audiobus would solve the IAA and audio recording problems.
I've been looking at what Microfreak is but it seems to be a hardware synth (unless it's an app that I can't seem to find). Please let me know otherwise.
Sure, that's what I meant.
It wouldn't be my idea of a smooth workflow but it surely works.
Yes. And a rather unique one. There are many videos about the Arturia Microfreak.
Yeah, I think Gadget, and Nanostudio with some AUv3 should provide what I'm looking for in a mobile keyboard device.
The microfreak looks sick, but since I'm an amateur at synthesis, I doubt I'd be able to appreciate its potential.
Also, maybe I don't need to record the audio on the same device. Recording the MIDI should suffice, and I can record the audio on a different device.
Or maybe, Audioshare or even a screen capture. I'm not sure of the stability of Multitrack in audiobus setup.
You're right. I simply can't say how deeply sorry I am for making that comment.
You see that's more of a double entendre...
