H-Delay

Waves

Where to get itAvailable from Waveswaves.com

H-Delay is a hybrid delay plugin that blends classic hardware tape delay characteristics with modern digital control and effects. It delivers slap-back echo, ping-pong delay, tempo-sync with modulation, filtering, flanging, and phasing through an intuitive interface. The plugin emulates vintage tape delay pitch changes, lofi sampling artifacts, and offers four analog character modes for vintage-to-modern sonic flexibility.

Key Features

034 Analog character modes for vintage sound coloration
04Dual mode for independent left/right delay time control
05HP and LP filters with linked band-pass operation
06Delay modulation with LFO rate (0.1–6000 Hz) and depth (0–100)

08LoFi mode emulating reduced sample-rate vintage digital delays

Things to Try

  • 01Set short delay with slow modulation speed and moderate depth for flanging effect
  • 02Use Feedback 100–200 setting with appropriate delay time for endless loop effects
  • 03Enable Ping Pong with Feedback > 1 for bouncing stereo effect
