Unique, garden hose-based mechanical delay device, captured as a plug-in.

Designed by Duane H. Cooper and Bill Putnam, the Cooper Time Cube was a garden hose-based mechanical delay device introduced in 1971. It has achieved cult status as the most unique delay ever made. Famous for its spectacular short delay and doubling effects — as well its uncanny ability to sit perfectly in the mix — the Cooper Time Cube is as character‑filled a device as you will ever find.

The Cooper Time Cube MkII plug-in for UAD‑2 hardware and Apollo interfaces is an exacting emulation of this utterly original, and usable device with an expanded feature set far beyond the original hardware. By capturing the sound of the original delay system, while offering modern delay features, the Cooper Time Cube MkII plug‑in is a versatile, fat‑sounding space maker without equal.

Craft delay textures with the most unique delay device ever made

Add intense doubling effects to thicken vocals, guitars, synths, and more

Adjust Tempo Sync for A & B delay lines separately for intriguing rhythmic delays

One of the best plugins delay

Beautiful analog delay perfectly suitable for any material and in any genre. Very little load on the DSP, but it still sounds fantastic! 5 points!

Wider and stronger

Not only the Cooper Time Cube makes distorted guitars wider, but also more beautiful and agressive. The combination with LA-3 is unbeatable.

Great for atmospheric layering, when you just want a touch of something different. A versatile sidekick for sound design sessions.

Must have for keyboards!

The default setting of Cooper Time Cube can really make you keyboards wide and thick.
Pianos, mallet keys instruments, you name it. Very nice on guitars too, but where it shines the most is on analogue synths doing sequences and big leads.

Creative Utility

I mostly engineer my own vocals and since discovering the Cooper timecube I’ve found a new space of vocal agility due to its unique sounding effects and analog sensibilities. Just another affirmation for investing in UA products
