LENS RESOLANA
The glow left in the sky after the sun goes down.
Most effects forget what they heard a second ago. RESOLANA remembers the song. It is always recording, filed by bar, so the chorus can quote the verse, the drums can play from the vocal's past, and the moment you liked three minutes ago is still there to loop, scatter into grains or chop into pulses.
One groove, eight presets
The same groove through factory presets, level-matched so you hear the effect and not the volume. Flip BEFORE / AFTER while it plays.
01Song memory
Three minutes, filed by the bars your DAW plays. Reach back by seconds, by bars ago, or straight to a bar of the song: bar 9 of the verse, inside the chorus, on the beat.
02The band
Put RESOLANA on several tracks and each can play from the others' past. The drums take a ghost of the vocal; the pad takes the bassline from two bars back.
03Loop · grain · pulse
Play what it remembers as a loop at any speed or backwards, as a cloud of grains, or chopped into rhythmic shards. REGEN past 100 % builds into saturation.
04Looper
A phrase looper with overdub and undo that starts on the bar, keeps pitch or drops like tape when the tempo moves, and can run through the effects or sit on top.
05Color, age, motion
Drive, fold, lo-fi, chorus, phaser, ring, resonator and more in two slots; tape wow, flutter and dropouts; echo (tape, digital, bucket, reverse) and space (hall to cloud).
06Switches on the back
Sixteen DIP switches, each wired to a control, moved by a RAMP or a 64-step sequence. Big footswitches on the front: CAPTURE, REVERSE, FREEZE, BYPASS with trails.

THE BAND needs its tracks in one plug-in process, the default in most DAWs. If your DAW runs every plug-in in its own sandbox, each track only hears its own past.
Demo
The demo is the full instrument: every sound, every page, no time limit. Saving (projects, presets) and taking audio out are switched off, and the sound dips softly for a second once a minute, until you add a licence key; your DAW session still saves with it inside. The same install unlocks.
The quick guide shows the memory, the effect slots and how to make the switches on the back move things for you.
