Self-randomising repeater engine
The repeater engine found within Rerun works by constantly sampling small samples of incoming audio with up to a 600ms sample size and 50x repetitions. Rerun then plays these samples back over and over again to create long intricate vortexes of repeat runs. A "size" parameter sets the maximum duration of one repeater slice: at its minimum setting the slice size is randomised between 10 to 30ms, and between 90 to 60ms at the maximum setting. The repeater engine present in Rerun is also capable of responding to a determined repeats parameter that sets the maximum number of slice repeats: between 1 and 5 at minimum to 6 and 50 at maximum setting. All of these effects are engaged by a probability parameter that determines the probability of the slice repeater being engaged for the next round of repeats so that despite the natural chaos inherent in Rerun you retain a sense of control and comprehension to shape the Sinevibes Rerun to the specific needs of your mix.
Furthermore, extend the reach of your control on the Sinevibes Rerun by defining one of two types of operation when the repeater engine is not engaged: "Sum" or "Gate". In "Sum" mode Rerun is set so that when the repeater is not engaged, the dry signal is passed through, and a complete sound input can break through the otherwise metamorphic qualities of Rerun. In "Gate" mode Rerun is set so that when the repeater is not engaged, the dry signal is muted, and you only receive the deconstructed slices for the most erratic sonic quality Rerun has to offer.
Sonic shaping
Sinevibes packages Rerun with a number of sonic shaping tools so that you can find a comfortable place for this self-randomising audio repeater in your mix. Multiple playback modes - forward, reverse and alternating provide dynamic flexibility in the sonic quality of Sinevibes' Rerun. While all three playback modes define the direction of repeats in playback, utilising randomised reversing or time-stretched textures, they each offer a distinctive and interesting movement that captures the attention, so that there are always experimental potentials for you to discover a unique sound for your mix.
Moreover, Sinevibes Rerun features an adjustable envelope that determines the maximum attack and decay times of the slice level. Again, Sinevibes encourages the sense of movement and dynamism in the effects that Rerun is capable of producing, so that your Rerun effect can burst into chaos or slide into rolling repeats.
Sinevibes also offers a Stereo link feature that offers both separate or stereo-linked operation of slice repeaters, either operating individually on the left and right channels or synchronising between the two to create varied effects over the stereo field, but either way, developing an established sense of depth and width within your mix.
User interface
Rerun features intuitive thematic elements within its UI that are easily recognisable throughout the Sinevibes range of effects plugins. Colour-coded graphic elements, consistent name, mapping, value and unit implementation for all parameters in the user interface and automation menus, built-in presets and preset management functions all develop an easy-to-follow workflow that means that you spend less time tediously digging through menus of this complex effects unit and more time discovering the wide-ranging potentials of the Sinevibes Rerun.
