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
Things
This audio effect plugin offers a voice-optimized compressor inspired by a vintage German radio broadcast instrument. It provides a simple one-knob interface for achieving loud yet smooth vocal tones, with optional tube gain saturation and a euphonic EQ for authoritative bass.

Things - Voice is a simple one-knob "throw it on and it sounds good" compressor for voice-over and vocals. Based on our channel strip Dials it gives you everything you need to make your voice loud yet smooth. The compressor is an unusual and complex design from a German 1950 radio broadcast instrument. If you desire to get even closer to that unit's vintage tone, add authentically modded tube gain with the saturation button. For an authoritative bass boost we have added a rather euphonic EQ that excites just the right frequencies. This is the seventh plugin in our ongoing collaboration with Berlin musician and video personality Hainbach.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: GSDSP Quantum Delay at 100% against Things's 0%. GSDSP Quantum Delay also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 25 months). Things's advantage is price ($6.99 vs $14.99) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
