Cooper® Time Cube MkII Delay
-
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. 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.Now You Can:
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
Expertly tweak repeats with Treble, Bass, Color, and High Pass Filter controls
5-Minute UAD Tip
In this video, learn how to widen a Wurlitzer, add vibey slapback to guitars, and synchronized delay trails on a vocal with the Cooper Time Cube MkII Delay plug‑in.
“The Cooper Time Cube plug-in is one of my favorites. It's much easier than running sounds through a box with garden hoses inside.”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)Customer Reviews

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.

Cooper Time Cube Mk II Delay
Great for vocals and guitar. Plugin "oldies but goldies" :)
N. Jeremic
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.E. Chapo
Very unique delay sound
I really like the way it behaves!

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
