glassy shifting chorus

glassy shifting chorus

A frequency shifter with a slowly drifting carrier. Small shifts read as a glassy chorus because the shift amount wanders on its own; adding carrier harmonics turns each note into a cloud of metallic sidebands.

A feedback path re-shifts the signal on every pass, building into a chiming, drifting resonance. Downward shifts stay clean, because a filter removes anything that would fold back past zero Hz.

LOCK snaps the shift to whole multiples of the note you're playing, so every harmonic lands on another harmonic and the displacement loses the inharmonic clang a frequency shifter usually brings.

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.

what each knob does

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

it modulates itself

Calabasas Hair ships with the full CV/logic modulation section every Tangle standalone carries. Pick a modulator, drag a patch cable onto any knob, and that control moves on its own, no DAW automation required.

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.

it unlocks in tangle too

Calabasas Hair is a module from Tangle, the free cable-patchable rack. Buying it here licenses both: this standalone plugin, and calabasas hair 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.
