What you need to know
- Dynamic delay with internal sidechain: the repeats automatically duck when the source audio is present and rise again as soon as the signal falls below the threshold.
- Ultra-clear vocals: the singing remains crisp while the pauses fill with musical echoes, without interfering with the performance.
- High-quality built-in effects applied only to the delays: 36 dB low-cut/high-cut filters, one-knob reverb, detune, and saturation.
- Independent stereo: separate left/right time and feedback controls for complex panning and echo patterns.

What is Dynamic Delay used for?
Designed for creative mixing and sound design, " Dynamic Delay " lets you shape intelligent echoes that leave the main element of the mix unobscured. Ideal for lead vocals, it also shines on synths, guitars, and percussion to create depth without muddying the center. The built-in ducking replaces sidechain compressor chains, speeding up your workflow and ensuring a clean, musical result.

Questions frequently asked
Is Dynamic Delay compatible with macOS and Apple Silicon?
Compatibility covers macOS 10.9 Mavericks or later, exclusively 64-bit. An Intel Core i3 processor or equivalent is required, with Core i5 recommended, and Apple Silicon computers are supported.
What plugin formats are available?
VST2, VST3, AU, and AAX formats are provided. Use is intended with 64-bit hosts, including Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, and Pro Tools.
How does delay ducking work?
The built-in threshold determines when the repeats become audible. During phrases, the echo automatically attenuates, then fills the space between phrases. This operation eliminates the need for a dedicated sidechain compression chain.
Can a stereo ping-pong delay be created?
Separate delay times and feedback values can be programmed on each channel to generate lateral movement or ping-pong effects.
Which effects are applied only to the repeats?
Wet-only mode allows processing of echoes exclusively with 36 dB analog Lowcut and Highcut filters. A one-button reverb derived from AR1, Detune, and saturation inspired by Boost-X can then modify the delay tails.
