Xaoc Devices Sarajewo Analog Delay 

yes, it is :)

On the beginning the sound is taken from Jena and Drezno, and then there is Odessa starting at 0:53.

There is no hidden stereo output, it is just panning of three tap outputs.

@@xaocdevices13 Really into this one. May I ask you to describe the patch?

@@ranglr8319 It is rather simple patch, 1st and 2nd tap are pan hard left and right and 3rd tap mixed with original signal is in the centre. Sound source is Odessa (as a source of sine wave)>Drezno+Jena (as wavetable waveshaper)>Belgrad>Tallin and Zadar (envelope). In some parts it is just Odessa and Tallin. On the beginning of video Sarajewo is synced to external clock and sequencer is changing divisions on Sarajewo (this effect is presented at 4.57). I don't remember how feedback path is patched, probably just mix of the taps instead of usual 3rd tap.

@@xaocdevices13 Thanks a lot!

You can't compare it with a modern digital delays but if we are talking about bbd delays I think we did quite good job to get rid of as much of noise as we could. With the longest times there is more noticeable degradation, you can set inbuilt filter as you want but it is always a compromise, less noise means a darker sound. There are three best available bbd chips in Sarajewo and in my opinion up to 600 ms it sounds clean and quite bright. We didn't use any processing in the video and I believe it shows module honestly.

@@xaocdevices13 thank you :} It is in my wish list 🤓

total of 30 stages :) but it's not so obvious with different modulation on each unit.

????

Mix of T3 and dry signal gives you standard delay with longest available time. While mixing multitap delay usually you want to set independently volume of each tap. To do this you need pot for each tap and it would take more space and further rise the price. If you add pots for mix of taps, why not add pots for individual feedback loops? We believe the beauty of modular is in patching so we focused on as many open points as possible. With available outputs and open feedback loop you can selfpatch Sarajewo, use your favourite modules to bring saturation, filtering etc.

@@xaocdevices13 thank you for your reaction and explanation. Yes, patching is the beauty of modular and I do understand the choices now. I think the price is acceptable and fair, 3 BBD lines, synced clock etc., and it's sound is very good and versatile. It's on my list, but I have sacrifice other modules for it...

As all our name it is after the name of the city from eastern block but spelled in polish language.

@@xaocdevices13Hello, slight correction - Sarajevo (city I was born in) was never part of Eastern Bloc. Yugoslavia was non-aligned country. On the other hand, Poland was part of Eastern Bloc.

Yes it is due to cost of components and calibration. Believe me we did our best to keep this price as low as possible, we could cut some corners but that would drastically affect the quality of sound. It is nothing like digital delay, there is lots of expensive chips. Under this panel there are more than ten individual modules like compressors, expanders, VCFs, VCAs and delay lines.

Three analogue BBD lines in one module... Try to buy three different 'cheap' ones from Doepfer, think of trying them to squeeze them in 12hp and have it syncable. Expensive, yes, but justified I think!

bought it immediately and couldn't be happier.... their special sauce is always worth the price. So glad they don't cut corners

It’s kinda pricy, but I think it’s worth it if you can budget for it.it’s seriously one of the best-sounding delay I’ve heard. People pay like 4 times as much for a Moog MF104.

Have you heard of budgeting?
