TIME

Half-time, instantly. One knob. Any source.

Authentic half-time without manual chops, pitch-shifting tricks, or tedious sample-rate maths. Drop TIME on your track and pull a single fader. Transients stay sharp, pitch stays locked, your sound just gets twice as deep.

What's Inside

One knob. No compromises.

TIME does one thing — half-time your audio — and does it cleanly. Authentic time-stretching algorithms preserve pitch and transients, while smart blending lets you dial in just the right amount of stretch.

True Half-Time

Stretch any audio to exactly half speed with one knob. No tempo guessing, no manual chops, no DAW gymnastics. Drop, pull, done.

Pitch Locked

Phase-vocoder algorithm keeps the pitch exactly where you played it. Half-time vocals, drums, full mixes — no chipmunks, no detuned mess.

Transient Aware

Drum hits stay sharp. Smart transient detection prevents the smeared, washy artifacts you get from naive time-stretching.

Continuous Blend

Anywhere between 0% and 100% — slow down a hi-hat by 25%, halve a snare to 50%, push past 100% for unnatural slowdowns. Smooth and clean.

Dry / Wet

Mix the processed signal against the original at any ratio. Parallel processing, dub-style ambience, doubled-feel grooves — all from one knob.

Zero Latency

No look-ahead, no chunky buffer compensation. Stays in the pocket whether you're tracking live or bouncing through automation.

One Knob, Total Control

The simplest plugin you'll buy this year.

Skip the manuals, the YouTube tutorials, the routing diagrams. TIME's interface is one big knob and a dry/wet slider. Pull, listen, adjust. The half-time effect that took hours to set up manually now takes ten seconds.

  • Single primary control: stretch amount 0–100%
  • Dry/Wet blend for parallel processing
  • Automate the stretch in your DAW for dynamic effects
  • Resizable UI — fits any workflow
Built for Every Source

Use it on anything that makes a sound.

TIME isn't picky. Drums, vocals, full mixes, basslines, synths — the algorithm adapts to whatever you throw at it. Use it for trap-style half-time grooves, dramatic vocal slowdowns, ambient drone production, or just to add weight to a drop.

  • Drums — half-time grooves, doubled-feel pockets
  • Vocals — slow-mo transitions, vibe builds
  • Full mixes — chopped drop sections, breakdowns
  • Synths & basslines — pitch-locked rhythm warps

Studio-quality time stretching, instantly.

The same kind of phase-vocoder math that powers professional pitch-time tools, wrapped in an interface you can master in 30 seconds. No artifacts, no manual chopping, no rendering long offline takes.

  • Phase-vocoder time stretching, pitch preserved
  • Transient detection for clean drum hits
  • Real-time processing — no offline render needed
  • Under 3% CPU on modern systems

The Workflow

From full-speed to half-time.

TIME is designed to be obvious within thirty seconds. No 50-page manual, no routing matrix, no offline rendering. Drop it, pull the knob, hit play.

01

Drop TIME on your track

Bus or insert, doesn't matter — wherever you want the slowdown. Works on any source and pulls under 3% CPU.

02

Pull the stretch knob

Drag it from 0% (off) to 100% (full half-time). Anywhere in between gives you partial slowdowns. The audio stretches in real-time, pitch locked, transients intact.

03

Blend, automate, perform

Use the dry/wet for parallel processing, or automate the stretch knob in your DAW for ramps and dives. The pocket stays. The pitch stays. Everything else slows.
