Hellebore is a group of feedback loops. You manage the size of these loops and the amount of feedback. Going from reverberation to granular effect. Using the maximum feedback freezes the buffers, allowing the repitch and glitch of their content.

Hellebore stems from experimentation with delay-line based reverberation. Following a typo that created way to big buffers, I was interested by the granular-y results and pursue some exploration. The tool can be use for proper reverberation, but the interesting bit is the automation it allows, from reverb to granular. When the buffer resize I use repitching. The freezing of the buffer (i.e. no more writing, only reading) leads really nice glitchy sounds. Those sounds are not super coherent with the dreamy aspect of the not-freezed mode, but I figured out I’d rather let people explore this side of the sound which I found more interesting.
