The DELAY3000 Vintage Modern Repeater is a chameleon processor that brings the delay FX for your DAW to the next level. Modeled on the Roland SDE-3000 rack delay unit, the new DELAY3000 Vintage Modern Repeater plugin adds new features and an easy to use user interface that gives you a complete arsenal of delay effects at your disposal! 16 stereo multitap patterns, repetitions Hold switch, Sync to DAW function, modulation circuit, ducking and filter sections are only a part of the features of this incredible processor. The delay circuit of the DELAY3000 Vintage Modern Repeater plugin has two separate voices for modern digital delay type FX or analog vintage sound. The famous and unique Nembrini Audio’s distortion modeling is also included in the new DELAY3000 Vintage Modern Repeater plugin The DELAY3000 Vintage Modern Repeater plugin has two separate custom tuned saturation circuits: - GRIT add body and tube saruration - SMEAR softens the attack of the repeats while maintaining full frequency response The Ducking circuit is a very useful and practical mode to decrease the delay FX volume when the dry signal is playing. For example you can hear the delay tail only when the singer stop singing by simply turn two knobs. You can also add Chorus or Tremolo FX to the DELAY3000 tail and filter the effect output with a modulated resonant Low Pass Filter in Sync with your DAW. The DELAY3000 Vintage Modern Repeater plugin is must have tool for every modern producer, musician and mixing engineer! Works as a standalone app, AudioUnit v3 effect, or Inter-App Audio effect

A vintage-inspired delay supercharged with deep modulation, flexible filtering, and creative timing that pushes echoes into new dimensions. Classic Delay, Reinvented Quantum Delay takes the charm of a vintage stereo delay and fuses it with our next-level modulation system. Switch between the warm character of Tape mode and the pristine clarity of Fade mode, lock to BPM (including 5-tuplets) or dial in precise times in milliseconds. Use the Fine control for subtle push-and-pull micro-timing — or modulate your delay lines in ways traditional delays could only dream of. Sculpted Echoes Shape your repeats with switchable lowpass, highpass, and bandpass filters placed directly in the feedback path. Add modulation to create evolving tones, gentle movement, or drifting, frequency-shifting echoes. From warm analog-style rolls to shimmering, swirling textures, it’s all there. Feedback with Precision Control your delay tail behavior using either traditional % feedback or our modern dB-per-second decay system — ideal for predictable, musical decay even when the feedback path becomes complex. Enable Crossfeed for classic ping-pong stereo bounce, or push into Over-Feedback to create dense, self-building echoes that drift toward infinity. Stereo or Dual Mono Every section of Quantum Delay — delay, filter, and feedback — can switch between stereo and dual mono modes. Create tight, controlled stereo images or break them apart for wide, offset, unpredictable spaces. Dual mono modulation unlocks complex stereo interplay and beautifully asymmetric echoes. Modulation Without Limits Quantum Delay integrates our advanced modulation system, letting you modulate nearly anything: delay time, filters, feedback parameters, stereo controls, and more. Use LFOs, Random Generators, 2D modulators, Envelope Followers, Macros, and even chaotic systems to push your echoes far beyond traditional delay behavior. Or use our parameter randomisation feature to explore the plugin’s sound at random. Quantum Delay is an AUv3 audio effect plugin compatible with Logic Pro, AUM, Cubasis, GarageBand and many more. A Desktop version is also available for Windows and macOS (VST3 / AU / AAX). More information here: https://gs-dsp.com/products
