Price and compatibilityįabFilter Timeless 3 is now available for €109. If the plug-in wasn’t already a ‘Timeless’ classic, it’ll surely become one now. But FabFilter has packed all sorts of good ideas and new features into Timeless 3. Improving an already very versatile delay plug-in is no easy task. With the new Drive, Lo-Fi, Diffuse, Dynamics and Pitch effects and a couple of new filter types (bell/shelving/notch), the plug-in should be capable of a much wider sonic palette than its predecessor. There’s also a new real-time visualization system for modulations, which should make it easier to keep track of what’s going on.įabFilter Timeless 3 also offers a bunch of new effects, which you can apply to the feedbacked delay signal. And keep in mind that you can now apply modulation to each individual tap. According to FabFilter, this lets you achieve anything from classic ducking, wow and flutter effects to more adventurous, creative modulations. The new modulation engine lets you create modulators like 16-step XLFOs, XY controllers, envelope generators (now with curve control), envelope followers and MIDI sources, and map them to their targets by dragging and dropping. Modulation has always been a key feature of Timeless, and the upgrade is another big step forward in that regard, as well. There are also new ping-pong modes and the feedback, cross-feedback and modulatable freeze features have been improved. To start with, Timeless 3 now supports rhythmic multi-tap delays with up to 16 taps, each of which can be controlled and modulated individually. But the delay engine has received a big upgrade in functionality. Timeless 3 sports a sleek, modern GUI and actually looks less cluttered and easier on the eye than the predecessor, even though it comes with a whole bunch of new features.Īt the heart of the plug-in is still an emulation of a vintage tape delay effect. The first thing that meets the eye is the new look and user interface. But even a renowned classic can always be improved upon, and FabFilter has just rolled out a complete overhaul of Timeless. Since Timeless is a delay app, we need to minimally run on a 5ms delay to engage the filter flow.With FabFilter’s Timeless, the name says it all: the tape delay plug-in has been around for a long time and has become ‘timeless’ in its own right. Note the following when you want to mix in dry content: Once you have subsequently saved a preset directly in Timeless 3, it will become available in other hosts as well.Īll of the presets are provided with fully wet settings. On the 'Timeless 3' plugin window in AUM, open the hamburger menu with the AUM presets (upper left corner, 4th icon from the left). Of note: if you already had made AUM presets for Timeless 3, then moving the directoryĤ66162464633547361756D66 to under 'On My iPad' -> 'AUM' -> 'Audio Unit Presets' will not work any longer! (If you do this, a new directory '466162464633547361756D66 2' will be created from what you had moved.) perform 'Select All' on the 133 *.aum_aupreset files

proceed per the first-time-install note aboveĮlse, you need to add the individual *.aum_aumpreset files to the preset directory instead: then move, rename, or delete the above preset directory If you have previously installed or created Timeless 3 AUM presets (e.g. 'On My iPad' -> 'AUM' -> 'Audio Unit Presets' If this is the first time you are installing Timeless 3 AUM presets: Must contain the Timeless 3 presets (*.aum_aupreset files) for AUM to find and use them. Of note, once you have subsequently saved a preset directly in Timeless 3, you can then use it in other hosts as well. Since the FabFilter folks do not support direct export or import of presets in iOS at this time, we need to take the workaround of exporting (and 'importing') AUM presets. The two-character prefixes group the patches by originating apps, helping to keep related presets together. Thus I claim neither originality nor faithfulness in reproduction. These patches are inspired from presets found in a half dozen filter apps. (Except that we are forced to add an initial delay - see below.) The presets here are not using the delay functionality of Timeless at all. Timeless 3 provides incredibly deep filter and modulation capabilities.
