Vongon Polyphrase

The Vongon Polyphrase is a stereo echo and looping device inspired by the experimental character of early proto digital delays from the 1970s, including the Lexicon Prime Time. Designed to be both sophisticated and intuitive, Polyphrase covers a broad range of sounds, from warm, rhythmic dub style repeats through to metallic, resonant flanging effects.

Its standout feature is the ability to create loops of up to 22 seconds, giving the Polyphrase considerably more creative scope than a conventional delay. The stereo architecture and extended loop time make it particularly suited to ambient textures, rhythmic experimentation, sound design, and more adventurous approaches to effects processing.

Polyphrase can move between conventional echo duties and more unusual looping and modulation based sounds, making it a highly flexible tool for players looking to explore beyond traditional delay effects.
