BIM is a stereo delay unit that recreates the studio delay processors that were popular in the 1980s using modern technology. Its 12-bit AD/DA conversion and analog circuitry deliver a rich, musical sound. It pursues a sound that only hardware can deliver, something that cannot be replicated with modern digital delays or plug-ins.

A wide variety of sound-shaping options are available, including tap tempo, selectable delay type, high-pass/low-pass filters, a freeze function with reverse functionality, and program save/recall. It also features an integrated LFO section that allows tap tempo input of waveform, frequency, and speed. Enjoy sound shaping through modulation. Other features, such as an analog limiting circuit, bypass mode adjustment, delay input gain, and MIDI control, expand the possibilities of real-time delay performance.
