CARAVEL 0.6.0 / STASIS
Hear HOLD, ADD and BLEND.
Three original examples from the actual Caravel firmware DSP. Listen for what stays after the live source is muted, and how the texture changes.
Native DSP renders, not recordings of an FM-1. Constant peak normalization and a short end fade; no external sound effects. Playback starts only when you press play.
20 SECONDS / HOLD

- Source track muted; captured texture remains
- MOTN about 79%
