AIR Music Technology has announced AIR Delay Pro, a delay plug-in aimed at those working in all genres of modern music, and includes versions for MPC hardware as well as standalone plug-ins for all popular DAWs.
The plug-in offers characteristic digital and analogue delays with up to 4s delay time and is fully BPM syncable. There are three stereo modes for creating complex offset and bouncing delays, plus a width control. A comprehensive feedback section includes high- and low-pass filters, resonant filter with resonance and LFO, distortion, and limiter. There is also a diffusion section with stereo switch and size control to create subtle washes.
The modulation section offers three modes (Wobble, Stereo and Chorus) with slow and fast modulation control for classic tape emulation effects. An envelope follower with assignable to time, feedback and mix parameters, parametric EQ and an output section with high- and low-pass filtering, width, balance and mix controls complete the functionality. This is supported by a wide range of presets.
Auto-clear gives the option to have enormous delay based effects that stop when needed, for example, when the next note hits. Diffusion is an effect that smears the delay sound, taking it into the realm of a reverb. Like a reverb, the size of the space can be adjusted and the stereo image width controlled. Envelop Follow allows control of how the delay evolves over time – delay time, feedback and mix can evolve over time with control over when that happens using ceiling and release time.
AIR Delay Pro is offered in AU, VST, VST3 and AAX plug-in formats for MacOS, and VST, VST3 and AAX for Windows, and is priced at $89.
