Introduction
Meringue
Meringue is a delay effect. Unlike most delays, the delay runs alternately forwards and
backwards, rather than continually forwards. This simple difference produces some inter-
esting and unusual effects, e.g.
• Delay echoes play alternately forwards and backwards.
• The time between a note and its echo varies, depending on the location of the note in the
delay buffer (unlike a normal delay, where the time between a note and its echo is con-
stant).
As you’ll see from the above, it can be useful to know where the current delay buffer write
position and direction are, and for this reason Meringue features a large graphical over-
view of the sound in the delay buffer, and of the motion of the write position.
Meringue has a filter/saturation section for creatively treating the sound.
The delay time and the filter LFO can be synced to the host application's tempo. The phase
of the delay and the LFO can also be reset manually.
You’ll find audio samples demonstrating the above effects and more on the Expert Sleep-
ers website.
