Analog Delay

PreSonus

Where to get itIncluded with Studio Onepresonus.com

Analog Delay is a tape delay emulator featuring a single playback head with optional tempo sync, LFO modulation, filtered feedback, and tape saturation modeling. It excels at creating deteriorating echoes, pitch-shifting delays, and flanging/chorus effects characteristic of dub and '70s rock production.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Key Features

01Delay time from 1 ms to 3 s (unsync) or 4/1 to 1/64 beats with triplets (sync)
02Feedback control from 0 to 100% with optional boost
03LFO with four waveforms (triangle, sine, sawtooth, square) and synced or unsync modes
04Low Cut (Off to 20 Hz to 3.2 kHz, 6 dB/octave) and High Cut (400 Hz to 16 kHz to Off, 6 dB/octave) filtering
05Tape saturation via Drive (0 to 100%) with State Space Modeling
06Motor Factor (0.5 to 2) and Inertia (0 to 5) for speed modulation
07Ping-Pong mode with stereo width control (mono to full width) and channel swap
08Dry/Wet mix (0 to 100%) with lockable balance

Things to Try

  • 01Use Ping-Pong Mode set to Sum with higher Width settings to achieve the full ping-pong effect
  • 02Set Ping-Pong Mode to 2-Ch and use lower Width settings to monoize the delay effect
  • 03Enable Ping-Pong Swap when using Mono mode at 100% Width to control whether the delay starts on the left or right side
  • 04Increase Drive (0-100%) to emulate tape saturation for coloring the delayed signal
