TripRoll by TomaLab
A vocal roll delay. TripRoll catches a word and echoes it faster, slower and deeper, locked to your tempo.
One line, five knobs, two LFOs. Scroll to put it together.
Six demos: a spoken line dry over a 146 BPM groove, a chime, then the same groove through TripRoll. Headphones on.
Instrument 02
Trip plus roll: the trance vocal roll, one insert away. Click through the five parts, the same five you see in the plugin.
TripRoll listens to your vocal. When a new word starts after a short gap, it catches that syllable from its first moment and starts the roll. Or roll on every beat, bar or two bars, or only when you press Fire.
The Speed line sets the echo time across the roll: high is fast, low is slow. Speed up into a buzz, slow down, do it again. Each point snaps to a note value or runs free in milliseconds.
The Pitch line bends the echoes along the roll, from the voice's own pitch to the Bend amount. The reference roll dives about 11 semitones and comes back up.
Mix balances the voice against the echoes. Feedback sets how long they last. Tone darkens them as they go. Wash throws them into a wide reverb, more as the roll speeds up.
Two LFOs, each moving one knob. Drag the wave's handle onto Mix, Feedback, Tone, Bend or Wash. The knob shows a ring over the range it sweeps and a dot where it is now.
Headphones on. Turn it up.
Most of them move a knob with an LFO, and many draw their own lines.
Three of them on camera:
Every knob, menu and LFO setting shows up in your DAW. Draw it, record it, map it.
Fire is a parameter. Put it on a pad or a clip envelope and roll exactly the word you want.
The Speed and Pitch lines you draw are saved with the session, point by point.
