Joe Rossitter at Cableguys brings you this in-depth tutorial guide to ShaperBox’s TimeShaper. Find out how to draw multiband DJ scratching, tapestops, reversing, stutters, glitch effects, beat repeats and more, all in your DAW.
*****
Just like a DJ working vinyl, TimeShaper 3 for ShaperBox lets you freely manipulate the flow of time, slowing down or accelerating your music. Simply draw the exact LFO shapes you need – our unique curve-editing tools make it fast and easy. Warp pitch and time to create everything from essential everyday FX to extreme multiband transformations.
Running inside Cableguys' ShaperBox 3 effects plugin, use TimeShaper on its own or with other Shapers — they all work in exactly the same way, stacking up to create elaborate, multilayered effects that'll make your productions stand out.
WHAT IS SHAPERBOX? 🤔
ShaperBox 3 (PC/Mac, VST/AU/AAX) is a flexible effects rack for precision mixing and creative sound design. It contains 10 powerful multiband effects called Shapers. Place them in any order to create an endless array of effects.
Each Shaper’s effect is controlled by an editable LFO – using Cableguys’ easy editing tools, you can quickly design LFOs of any complexity, combining straight lines and smooth curves.
Sync each effect to your song, trigger with MIDI or audio transients, or use Envelope Followers that react to dynamics.
