Spaced Out

Dream Big

Spaced Out is a lush wet-FX generator, built for sending your sounds and vocals into weightless, heavenly orbit. It combines a crystalline reverb engine with a wealth of modulation options and a 16-step delay sequencer. In total, more than 50 individual effects come together in a singular creative experience with endless outcomes and zero sub-menus.

Spaced Out hosts an automatic ‘Generate’ function, which will create new textures at the click of a button and give you fresh ideas for where to take your tracks. We’ll see you on the other side!

Features

Spaced Out offers a pristine sounding one-stop solution for your wet-fx needs on drums, instruments and vocals. Use it subtly to add depth and movement — or go explore the outer bounds of wet-FX processing.

A Space Echo for the 21st Century?

It is no secret that BABY Audio are obsessed with the quirks, sounds and simplicity of vintage analogue gear. With every software product Baby Audio make, they hope to offer a little bit of that same hands-on experience and instant gratification. Never by emulating the past — but by tapping into its spirit to invent something new.

With Spaced Out, Baby Audio asked themselves this: How would they design a “space echo” effect today, almost 50 years after the original, with the abundance of computer power and algorithmic complexity at their disposal? 

They set out to create an effect as fun, flavoured and futuristic for the 21st century as the Space Echo was for its own time. It’s been an epic journey and Baby Audio are proud to have returned with their most complex plugin to date.
