Fleer 8,458 Posted May 2 Wow, dealio. One of the very best delays around. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Promidi 783 Posted May 2 With deals like this, it makes me wonder if anyone ever pays MSRP...... (unless they want it 90 seconds ago) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marled 518 Posted May 2 It is an interesting delay plugin, but it is very CPU hungry! That's what I don't like. It's minimum double compared to other delays that I have, or the best one consumes 20 times less cpu! Lately I have checked a lot of plugins in Reaper with regard to CPU consumption. I was really surprised of some (disappointed). I have also dropped 3 current deals, because of that. For this test I like that my laptop is not so powerful. This makes it easier to see the differences (than on my desktops). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RSMcGuitar 1,063 Posted May 2 It is CPU hungry, but at $10 it's a no brainer, if you like interesting and unique delay sounds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a lot for one plugin! Think if you have a lot of tracks and each with multiple plugins. I think your measurement is on a moderate or even powerful system. On my laptop (i5-5200U, 8 GB memory) it shows about 2.7% cpu for one single instance. A delay is not like a reverb that you may use on a bus for multiple tracks. I have almost 30 delays and there is only one that can exceed this: PA's Sandman Pro 👎. By the way there are many plugins of clever developers that show only 0.1 up to 1.0% cpu even on my laptop (e.g. Softube plugins, Toneboosters). And this is the benchmark IMO 😉.

Well, being realistic, I can't imagine using this ObjeqDelay plugin on more than a track or two at a time... it's a creative sound design tool and not a typical delay plugin. Apples/oranges... But it can do things that are unique. So a few percent of the CPU is in line with my expectations. And I am running a modest i5-9600K CPU.

abacab 5,517 Posted May 2 (edited) Beyond traditions... https://www.applied-acoustics.com/objeq-delay/ Objeq Delay is a creative delay unit with unique filtering options thanks to our acoustic object models. Going beyond traditional delay duties, Objeq Delay delivers modulator type effects, drum track layering, one-shot re-crafting, dynamic loop mangling, and drones… Quote Unheard worlds Transporting classic effects to previously unheard worlds. Interaction between the two delay lines lets you create innumerable rhythmic variations, but what makes Objeq Delay unique is the interaction between the modules. Applying LFO modulation to parameters such as Object frequency, material, or formant can generate effects difficult to reproduce with other processors.
