Samarkanda [ˌsamarˈkanda] is a performance-oriented digital delay station with resampling and looping capabilities. It offers four independent channels of delay with a wide range starting at 0.5ms and reaching 15 seconds per channel. Samarkanda’s channels can be losslessly stacked or chained, linked, and clocked for synchronous operation but also controlled with calibrated 1V/octave voltages. Each channel can infinitely hold and/or reverse the signal in its buffer. It can also act as a resonator, chorus or flanger. Sweeping the delay or loop length can be seamlessly switched between emulated analog (BBD/tape-like) and digital (granular-like) behaviour.The audio path is built with high quality components, including 24-bit AKM converters and 32-bit internal processing. Samarkanda performs its delay duties in the purest form possible, without additional filtering or other beautifying tricks.As an open-architecture modular device, it allows you to achieve every signal modification and modulation through external patching. For detailed description, please refer to the manual.
