A commanding, modern pitch-warping engine crafted for players who want bold harmonies, chorus textures, and controllable chaos. Rainbow Machine builds complex, polyphonic layers in real time, then drives them into regenerative feedback for rising or falling trails, metallic flutters, and performance-ready mayhem. Twice the output of the original with extended delay time, deeper chorus, silent switching on both footswitches, and more Magic.
