Expert Sleepers Forever
Three-voice audio freezer with infinite sustain and overdub
8 HP Eurorack module
Forever is an 8HP audio freezer and infinite-sustain effect built on the disting NT's 'Temporal Freeze' algorithm. Three independent freeze voices each capture and hold incoming audio indefinitely, triggered by their own toggle switch or gate input. Each voice can overdub fresh material into the frozen sound and add octave-down playheads for extra weight. Shared Attack, Release, Layer, X-fade and Mix knobs shape the freeze, and a Shift layer re-purposes those knobs for playback length, playhead counts and mode selection. A USB port handles firmware, configuration and MIDI control.
