What it does
Super Stutter continuously records the incoming signal into a rolling tape buffer, then slices time into tempo-locked cells that can repeat, hold or reverse what was captured, while a varispeed tape head simultaneously pushes the playback up or down by as much as two octaves (±2400 cents), so pitch and rhythm are always designed together rather than separately.
SHAPE, DECAY and SMOOTHING sculpt the envelope of each rhythmic event, SWING loosens the grid off a strict machine pulse, and a resonant ladder filter sweeps with the pattern itself rather than sitting static behind it. Treated as a programmable rhythmic instrument rather than a fixed effect, it moves from precise chopping to pitched, broken-tape texture without ever leaving the host tempo.

In Action
Highlights
- Tempo-synced gate/stutter cells
- Division-based timing
- PITCH — ±2400 cents (±2 octaves) of varispeed tape pitch; 0 displays as Off
- Stepped 100-cent drag by default; Ctrl-click (Windows) / Cmd-click (macOS) toggles free fine-tuning, remembered with the session
- SHAPE control from linear to strongly exponential response
- Asymmetric SMOOTHING keeps attacks faster while softening decay
- Thin/extreme shape settings intentionally retain their natural level behaviour rather than being automatically loudness-normalised
- EXPORT MODE — 4x oversampling for higher-quality final renders
