The Taps Portals Black Friday deal takes 50% off Lunacy's pair of delay and feedback effects, bringing them to $29 until Nov 11, 2026.
Taps & Portals were designed with Benn Jordan, and the maker built them for creative delay and feedback design.
Taps is the delay. Portals is a feedback builder that lives inside BEAM, Lunacy's multi-effects engine.
Taps runs as free-running or tempo-synced delay. Use a few taps for a classic echo, or up to 8 for dense webs of repeats.
The Multiply and Divide modes cover everything from smeared delays to long rhythmic accompaniment. A Freeze button locks the feedback in place.
Each of the 8 taps has its own pitch controls, and there are 5 pitch modes to choose from. The spacing controls skew, cluster, swing and ping-pong the repeats.
The Tape section adds wow, flutter, dropouts and dust, so the delays pick up the quirks of an analog tape machine.
Drop Portals into BEAM and you have a custom feedback system. Whatever effects sit between the In and Out nodes feed back into themselves.
Gate, Delay and Feedback controls let you keep it to gentle motion or push it into full feedback chaos.
The maker says a smart feedback compensation system keeps levels from running away, even at 100% feedback.
You can split feedback across multiple beams and place Portals inside Portals for nested systems. A Panic button cuts the signal.
Used together, the maker says the two effects can build self-evolving sound with minimal input. Taps can sit between or outside Portals, so delay and feedback work as one suite.
Yes. The Black Friday deal takes 50% off Taps & Portals by Lunacy, bringing it to $29. The offer runs until Nov 11, 2026. Both effects are part of it, along with the preset collections that come with them.
Taps is an audio plugin in VST, AU and AAX formats, and the maker says it works with all major DAWs. BEAM owners can also load Taps inside BEAM, with up to 3 Taps nodes in serial or parallel.
You get the Taps plugin, Taps and Portals inside BEAM for BEAM owners, 50 Taps presets from sound designers including Benn Jordan, and the Parallax pack of 50 presets that combine Taps & Portals with BEAM.
Add Portals in BEAM and whatever effects sit between its In and Out nodes feed back into themselves. Gate, Delay and Feedback controls shape it, and smart compensation keeps levels in check, even at 100% feedback.
