One important distinction to make here is that a frequency shifter is different than a true pitch shifter, which alters frequency content by a set ratio in order to maintain the harmonic content of the music. The name Echobode is a rather clever reference to these two main components: "echo" for the delay and "bode" (pronounced boh-dee) for the frequency shifter, which was originally invented by Harald Bode. If you're not familiar with Echobode, the easiest way to understand it is to see it as a delay with a frequency shifter inserted within its feedback loop. Having enjoyed a few years of RE exclusivity, this unique effect was reintroduced to a broader audience this past April, when a brand new version was released in VST/AU format. One of the best examples of an RE original is Echobode, a frequency shifting delay originally released by Sonic Charge. On the other side of the fence were plug-ins created from scratch to take advantage of the new platform. The first included the obvious ports of existing VST/AU plug-ins like KORG's PolySix, migrated into compatibility with some minor changes. When the Propellerhead group introduced the Rack Extensions (RE) plug-in standard for Reason in 2012, the industry's initial offerings fell into two categories.
