H-Delay Hybrid Delay

The complete toolbox for classic delay effects

Vintage Effects, Modern Power—the Delay that Does It All

H-Delay’s comprehensive control set delivers chorusing, flanging, echo, tape delay, looping, doubling, slapback, resonance, vibrato, self-oscillating feedback, and more. Best of all, it covers the sonic range from funky, old-school delays to today’s state-of-the-art sound quality.

With its accessible interface, straightforward controls, and a huge variety of presets, H-Delay can kick-start your creativity in seconds—it’s no wonder people call this their “desert island delay.”

Versatile. Deep. Intuitive.

Your Delay Effects Laboratory

H-Delay has the tools to emulate all popular delay-based effects, past and present. Go from BPM-synced tape delay on vocals, to lush guitar chorusing, to vibrato and out-of-control delay feedback effects—all with the easiest, most intuitive interface around.

Something Old, Something New

Whether you want the nostalgic character of vintage digital delays, or the immaculate sound of today’s high-resolution technology, H-Delay gives it to you—along with analog sound emulation for either option.

Tailor Your Delay Tone

Early delay technologies never had a flat frequency response. H-Delay’s HiPass and LoPass controls can re-create these tone qualities, be linked to create a bandpass response, or set to full bandwidth.

Hi-Class Lo-Fi

The Lo-Fi button emulates the effect of reduced sample rates, while the Analog control offers four analog circuit sound qualities—perfect for dub music. You can even apply the analog effect to dry, undelayed signals.

Tempo Tweaking Tools

Choose a delay time in milliseconds, beats per minute, sync to the host DAW’s tempo, tap tempo, or control tempo with MIDI. And, the separate BPM setting allows for polyrhythms when played against the host tempo.
