§ what it does

dark bucket-brigade delay

A dark, analog-style bucket-brigade delay. DIV scales the TIME knob by one of eight musical ratios, from a whole down to an eighth triplet; it multiplies the knob and never syncs to the host tempo. The feedback path is filtered and softly saturated, so repeats get darker and thicker as they stack.

Delay-time modulation runs from a light warble to full chorus. At the top of REGN the repeats pile up and hang on almost forever, but the loop always decays in the end rather than running away.

It runs the same DSP as the module in Tangle; nothing is cut down for the standalone version. One licence covers both: this plugin, and the same module unlocked inside the rack.

§ every control

what each knob does

Five controls, no menus. Here they are on the panel itself.

tempo-lockeddiv snaps the delay time to a musical subdivision, so repeats sit in the grid.

moving read headmod wobbles the read position for chorus and pitch-warble on the tails.

runs away on purposepush regn toward unity and the loop self-oscillates into runaway repeats.

§ built-in modulation

it modulates itself

Bridge Crown ships with the full CV/logic modulation section every Tangle standalone carries. Two slots, each running one of six modulators: pick one from a slot's tabs, drag a patch cable onto any knob, and that control moves on its own, no DAW automation required. Both slots can run the same kind, each its own copy, and slot 2 can be switched off.

lfoSmooth cyclic movement: sine, triangle, square, sample & hold, or a shape you draw.

curveA looping contour you draw by hand: smooth, spiked or stepped.

noiseStepped, smoothed or slewed randomness for texture and wander.

transientListens for hits, then fires a trigger plus an envelope on every transient it hears.

env followTracks how loud you are playing and turns that into a control voltage.

timingSpreads hits as evenly as possible across a bar, so rhythms land musically instead of bunched.

§ always recording

it keeps what you just played

A rolling capture strip runs beneath the panel, always recording the plugin's output. No transport, nothing to arm. Played something great while you were just tweaking? Click-drag across the history waveform to select it, then drag the slice straight into your DAW timeline.

ARM flips it to ring-capture for hands-free takes.

§ one purchase, two plugins

it unlocks in tangle too

Bridge Crown is a module from Tangle, the free cable-patchable rack. Buying it here licenses both: this standalone plugin, and bridge crown unlocked inside the rack, where you can patch it into any other module you own. There is no second purchase and no upgrade path; the rack itself costs nothing.

Sign in once in the rack and your licences follow your account: a module bought this morning appears at the next licence check, on every machine you install on.
