VarispeedDelay 0.1.0
First release. A delay where every repetition is replayed at a different tape speed —
pitch and duration change together, and slow repetitions overlap the following ones
instead of being cut short.
- time 0.1 ms – 20 s free, or tempo-synced up to 2 bars with PPQ-anchored boundaries
- speed 1/4x – 4x with a 3x3 shortcut grid: octaves plus fourths and fifths
- feedback 0–2, RAW (varispeed compounds each generation) or STABLE (it does not)
- GRID / TAPE spacing, REGRID / BEND response to time changes
- 7-band graphic EQ in the repetition path, soft clip in the recycle path
See USAGE.md for what each control does and which behaviours are deliberate.

- No factory presets yet — the authoring and embedding machinery is in place, but the
preset content still has to be dialled in by ear. - Not yet validated with
auval, pluginval or a DAW. - Glide, bend limits, clip threshold and interpolator order are at their design defaults
and have not been tuned by ear.
