Your Delay Is a Canvas.
- •Drag taps anywhere on a single timeline — no separate menus, no knob-per-tap deep dives
- •Switch view modes to see and edit volume, pan, pitch, formant, filter, or saturation across every tap at once
- •Rubber-band select a group, drag them as one. Copy a tap's vibe and paste it onto another. Right-click to mute. Pencil-mode for freehand shaping
- •Zoom into any moment of your delay timeline like you'd zoom into a clip in your DAW
Cascades you can hear
Sweep Everything With One Knob.
- •Gain Ripple drops volumes off across the chain — instant decay shapes from gentle fade to sharp tail
- •Filter Ripple opens or closes the high-pass progressively, so each repeat cleans up a little more than the last
- •Pan Ripple spreads alternating taps left and right — combine with Ping Pong for groove-locked stereo throws

Questions
How many taps can I run?
Up to 64 taps per channel. Stereo-linked: 64 taps mirrored across L+R. Unlinked: 64 left + 64 right, fully independent — 128 total.
Does it sync to my DAW tempo?
Yes. SYNC mode locks tap times to note divisions (1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64) with EVEN, DOT, or TRIP modes. SYNC OFF gives you free milliseconds (10 ms – 5 sec).
What's the difference between this and a normal delay?
Even feature-rich multi-tap delays usually stop at level and pan per tap. DLAY gives you 64 taps on a single canvas with per-tap pitch, formant, filter, saturation, pan, and reverse — plus six ripple knobs that cascade values across every tap with one twist.
How do I install?
Download, drag to your plugins folder, enter your license key on first open. Done.
Is there a trial?
No trial, but the 14-day money-back guarantee means you can try risk-free.
CPU heavy?
Active taps with pitch/formant use Signalsmith Stretch — that's the heaviest path. Clean taps are extremely light. Run as many as your project needs and bounce when it gets crowded.
Commercial use?
Yes. Use in any project. Keep 100% of your royalties.
