Sonimus releases DelaySon Tape Delay Plugin

NEW Sonimus DelaySon: – A Modern Tape Delay Plugin with Analog Soul

Get ready for DelaySon, the latest release from Sonimus, available this August 14th, 2025. This tape delay plugin combines the lush, saturated sound of classic analog delays with a workflow tailored for today’s producers and mix engineers.

Whether you're after subtle width, rhythmic complexity, or wild modulation, DelaySon gives you the tools to shape time with analog authenticity. Featuring a powerful preamp section, custom Color shaping, and deeply controllable delay behavior, this plugin is designed to sound good fast and push creative boundaries.

Key Features Include

TIME Module – Control the Rhythm and Blend

The TIME module is the foundation of DelaySon's echo engine, giving you intuitive control over timing, synchronization, and mix.

TIME: Sets the delay time for the echo effect, allowing you to dial in anything from tight slapbacks to long, spaced-out repeats.
MODE: Choose between two modes:Sync Mode aligns the delay time to your DAW's tempo (e.g., 1/4, 1/8 notes).
Time Mode lets you manually adjust delay time in milliseconds for complete creative control.

WET MIX: Adjusts the balance between the delayed signal and the dry (original) signal, letting you blend the echo to taste.
OUT GAIN: Controls the final output level of the effect, ideal for gain staging within your mix.

COLOR Module – Shape the Echo’s Tone and Movement

The COLOR module adds dimension, character, and tonal sculpting to your delays with tape-inspired warmth and dynamic filtering.

MODULATION: Introduces classic tape-style modulation (Wow & Flutter), adding organic movement and vintage feel to the repeats.
TONE: Shapes both high and low frequencies of the echoes. Lower values darken the tone; higher values brighten it.
LOW CUT: Applies a smooth 100 Hz high-pass filter to the delayed signal, removing excess low-end for a cleaner mix.

DELAY Module – Echo Depth, Character, and Space

The DELAY module enhances the depth and stereo image of the delay effect while infusing rich harmonic saturation.

FEEDBACK: Determines the number of echo repetitions—from a single slapback to endless self-oscillation.
L/R OFFSET: Fine-tunes the timing difference between the left and right channels to widen the stereo field and create immersive spatial effects.
DRIVE: Adds tape-style saturation to the echoes, enriching them with harmonics, warmth, and analog character.

Creative Applications

Explore DelaySon’s versatility across a wide range of mixing and sound design tasks:

1. Vintage Slapback Delay (Vocals & Guitars)

Set Time to ~120 ms (or sync to 1/16 note)
Adjust Feedback to 15–25% for subtle, classic repeats
Increase Drive slightly for analog warmth
Use Tone to roll off highs and achieve a mellow tape vibe

2. Rhythmic Delay for Synths & Drums

Sync Time to 1/8 or dotted 1/8 notes
Set Modulation depth to 25–50% for evolving movement
Push Feedback above 50% for cascading rhythmic echoes

3. Experimental & Sound Design

Max out Feedback to approach self-oscillation
Apply high Modulation depth for warped, psychedelic textures
Automate time for pitch-shifting and surreal echo bends
