Bastl Thyme

Thyme, from Bastl, is a desktop effects processor often described as a "robot-operated tape machine". It provides a wealth of effects intended to assist users in exploring the boundless depths of time-based effects processing—in stereo!

Thyme features nine parameters, all with a dedicated "Robot" (i.e., modulation source) that can be phased in different ways for the left and right channels. This capability makes the Thyme perfect for the creation of unabashedly psychedelic sonic effects and perfect for those kaleidoscopic desert ventures.

The Robot itself can be oriented in a variety of ways: as a multi-shape LFO, external CV source, or even an envelope follower. Users can access all of these features and more via the unit's front panel interface, which provides eight buttons (for preset selection) and a meta-sequencer. The sequencer, Robots, and delay effect can be synchornized via internal or external clock source. Beyond that, the unit features MIDI and CV capabilities, a switchable mono/stereo input, stereo output, level controls, and a footswitch input.
