Hysteresis

Glitchmachines

Hysteresis is a free glitch delay plugin geared toward creating robotic artifacts and abstract musical malfunctions. It features a feedback-based delay with integrated stutter, lowpass filter, and modulation effects in the feedback signal path, capable of generating both wild signal mutations and classic delay effects across drums, synths, guitars, vocals, and sound effects.

Key Features

01Feedback-based delay with tempo sync (5ms to 1000ms, 1-128 bar divisions)
02Stutter processor with variable loop size, playback speed (0-400%), and reverse option
03Lowpass filter with internal LFO modulation (20Hz-6kHz floor, 0-20Hz rate)
04Modulation FX with variable rate (0-600Hz base, ×10/÷10 scaling) for chorus to ring-modulation effects
05Channel separation control (0-100%) for stereo delay offset
0660 factory presets
07Dry/wet mix and output level control (-70 to +6 dB)

Things to Try

  • 01Use stutter speed at 200% with high feedback for pitch-shifting effects
  • 02Lower modulation rate values (0-50Hz) create subtle chorus type effects; higher values (100Hz+) produce noisy ring-modulation sounds
  • 03Enable channel separation (50-100%) combined with modulation for cross-channel stereo textures
  • 04Use the lowpass filter MOD parameter with internal LFO to create evolving tonal mutations
