It involves the signal being taken and “stored” then played back at a later time, either once or multiple times. In modern western music, it is hard to find a song that does not use some form of delay in their mix which is why it is important to create a user friendly, great sounding, accurate delay. A real delay is caused when a sound wave reflects off a surface and because of the extra time taken to get to the receiver (the ear) it has a lagged effect. Their use in the musical realm has been taken to a new level with the use of parameter settings and modulation types, the average Joe can easily create his or her own effect to suit their specific needs.

The Doppler effect is a real world phenomena than can be implemented musically, the same way a pitch shifter or chorus/flangers have in the past. I propose A Doppler Effect ‘effect’ that can be sold and used as a plug-in on various instruments such as electric guitars, synthesizers or even percussive instruments such as congas or shakers. This will be a revolutionary and one of the only dedicated spatial audio plug-ins to the Doppler Effect made in the world. The lack of Doppler plug-ins on the market indicates that there will be little competition and possibly a valuable niche market. A Doppler effect plug in will give customers a creative tool and a unique opportunity to spatially and melodically manipulate their sounds in an unconventional and new way.

Our products until now have been bootleg beta releases that due to increasing popularity have gone viral around the globe with underground artists. In particular, the success of “Smashup”, an effect system that recognizes the type of distortion required before the artist even thinks about it has become a worldwide sensation. Unfortunately due to the nature of bootleg releases no income has yet been achieved from our designs however our profile has become significantly increased warranting a new direction in implementation. We see commercialization being the next important step in our evolution to become a dominant force in digital audio effects. We are currently seeking a partnership with an established research and development company for the implementation of software and hardware based products for commercial release globally. We would like to take this opportunity to present our latest effect design and explain in detail how it works and why we consider it to be the flagship of this new evolution.

Description: Chorus effects in general give the user no control over both the modulation signal and the spatial aspects inherent in chorusing. This function represents a new design for a ‘spatial’ chorus effect that incorporates a modulation signal derived from a fractal algorithm with low-pass filter control, and the implementation of extensive user controls and parameters that center around the de-correlation of left/right signal paths resulting in a spatially enhanced outcome.

Like it’s close cousin the flanger, it also uses a system whereby a signal is added to a dynamically delayed exact replica of itself. One important distinguishing factor between the two effects however lie in the way the delay line duration is modulated. For a chorus effect to attempt to recreate the realism and tiny discrepancies of a multi-layered ensemble, the modulation must be generally faster, and provides a superior result if the modulation has a random character, rather than a regular periodic character. Chorus effects in general give the user little control over both the modulation signal and the spatial aspects inherent in chorusing. This paper will discuss a new design for a ‘spatial’ chorus effect that incorporates a modulation signal derived from a fractal algorithm with resonant low-pass filter control on the modulation signal. The implementation provides extensive user controls and parameters that center around the de-correlation of left/right signal paths resulting in a spatially enhanced outcome.
