Sonimus Delayson freebie

[Pat Osterday]

New Sonimus free delay plugin - https://sonimus.com/products/delayson

Nobody needs another delay.  Seems an odd choice from Sonimus.

Actually this a nice little delay. Clean interface and settings.

I disagree.

Most delays in a DAW do not offer the sound and simplicity of a basic guitar pedal delay.  Haven't used this yet, but seems like it might actually do that.

Ah, guess I'm spoiled by Logic and Live.  Also, I figure many of us have lots of delay options already.  But, yes, this could be the plugin that someone needs.  Still odd for them to spend time on this when several other plugins were promised updates for over a year.

This guitar pedal like delay freebie has been out for a while too - https://www.pspaudioware.com/products/psp-stepdelay

That is closer to Strymon delay tweak ability.

 

I'm thinking more time, feedback, level with an on off switch (and maybe a mod on off button). 😁

 

(and I also have quite a few plugin delays, but honestly most of them simply do not work like an old school guitar pedal - or they don't sound like one).  The only delay plugin I actually like is the Audiority Echorec and it is pretty complex and cpu hungry.

Blessed are those who have the discipline to use what comes with a DAW.

Getting off topic, but Arturia's Delay BRIGADE is pretty easy to dial in and can go deeper with the advanced options.

Another plugin maker making things needlessly complicated.

Own a real Deluxe Memory Man and it doesn't have anywhere close to that many options/knobs/switches, though if you ignore the "new stuff" it is fine.

Eleison!

Try Audiority Dark Memory (BBD) or Hornet HDD1 (digital) 

[Wookiee]

No so such thing as to many delays! 

[Brian Walton]

Gave it a quick demo.  Easy to use and a very nice highly resizable interface.  I'd argue that the repeats are certainly ok but do not sound like actual tape (or BBD) degradation as the feedback repeats continue if you are used to legitimate hardware.

That said, I certainly find the interface and ease of use better than quite a few paid options out there.

I only gave it a very quick test and found it pretty decent sounding too,, especially for a freebie.

I don't necessarily think it's all that unusual a choice either. He's probably just testing the waters and looking at expanding their offerings. Their prices are often on the higher side and they have no runs on the board when it comes to creative effects really, so a free one out of the gates might help them.

I tend to skip most of their stuff as their pricing is hardly ever competitive. The stuff is OK I just never feel it quite warrants the higher prices over the competition in today's market.

Definitely not bad for free!  Not something I need, as I have plenty!  Supermassive being my favorite freebie delay/reverb.
