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 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
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.”

Great on Vocals
I absolutely love the way it makes a vocal sound. Just throw it on a bus and blend it in. Could not be simpler.

Got it for free. Worth it! Good for a quick slap-back in console if you need that.

Unique
Excellent to add width…But also everything in between
J. Seabrook
Confusing at first...
I'm still not certain I understand how this thing works... I feel like a student again who made something cool but can't explain how. :) That said, the more I play with it, the more it makes sense. There are still some controls I don't get or can't hear (coils?) but's getting easier and quicker to setup the more I use it. It's quickly become my first choice for quick delay effects and I'm sure as I figure it out more, I'll rely on it for more and more!
