This enhanced version of the Analogic Delay gives you separate control over the delay times on left and right channel.
It is suitable for ping pong delays and drifting delays.

some user comments on this plug-in found here at the kvr-vst forum:

"I love the Bionic delay."

"WOAH!!! thanks for that incredible link! ther's some other full on cpu pig delay there too that I must try, but so far bionicle is way funk o rama!"

"very very nice echoes! mad props to the Interruptor. I'll enjoy automating these babies.. Ok it may not replace my RE-201 for "softening" sounds, but I almost never bother to patch that in anymore anyways.."

"BIONIC DELAY - now I have a deep respect for SE creations. - this thing is awesome!"

You see there's a major difference between software "gear" and 'Real stuff'. You only need and can use only 'one software'....but you can have and MADly use the whole stack of the same boxess....it's never enough. Same goes to cables ...heh heh ..., and you can't clone hardware..., real stuff is not copy/paste-able ..nor backup-able

Greetings Daniel,

nice to see that You continue to develop plug-ins like this. I always missed some dub oriented ones and You greatly filled this gap. Bionic delay is serious thing - I like it very much. Thank You...

Dis a good ting. Only dem filters seem fe cut aff nuff soun', almost nutting fe 'ear when dem cutoff slider 'ave been moved.
Is any manual fe get deh ?

Posted on Wednesday, February 11, 2004 - 01:25 pm:

about the "HI CUT" and "LOW CUT" faders:

"HI CUT" sets the cutoff frequency of the high cut filter. This filter eliminates the part of the signal ABOVE the cutoff frequency.
If you move the fader to the far RIGHT it will have no effect. If you move it to the far left the cutoff frequency is very low and the whole signal will be eliminated.

"LO CUT" sets the cutoff frequency of the low cut filter. This filter eliminates the part of the signal BELOW the cutoff frequency.
If you move the fader to the far LEFT it will have no effect. If you move it to the far right the cutoff frequency is very high and the whole signal will be eliminated.

in summary the neutral position is
- high cut fader to the far right
- low cut fader to the far left
in this position the filters have no effect!

hope this helps..

Love your stuff mate.

Seems your delays keep the attack of the sound more than Logics tape delay.

DJaXXz

Posted on Monday, May 24, 2004 - 07:25 pm:

Finally someone made the Logic Tape delay available for other host applications. Only one small remark about the VST ‘versions’. I think that with the Logic version the filters are situated in the feedback loop of the delay. This way the sound changes every time it cycles thought the loop (and the filter slope becomes steeper every cycle). In the Tape delay and Bionic Delay the filters are situated at the input or output (I guess?). This results in a static filter effect. If it is possible to change this you will probably end up with an exact copy.

Great job, respect!

WOW interruptor... I gotta thank whoever it was that encouraged you to create this. I have been looking for a VST clone of the Logic tape delay for ages. My copy of Ableton Live was just not complete without this beauty. I would echo (hehe) the sentiment of DJaXXz about the placement of the filters but who cares right now I'm gonna enjoy some beautiful saturated dubby goodness in my headphones.

PROPS! Now off to love it and hug it.

I have a problem with that wicked delay .
everytime i automate parameters in nuendo 2.01
the parameters get lost after saving !!
any ideas or bugfixes ?

thx in advance

Djaxxz & Radder: The filters ARE in the feedback loop already.

Hey Hi
I don't want to seem picky, cos this is a GREAT delay plugin (I used Logic for years before it moved to the dark side! (Only kidding, macs rock too!), and the bundled plugs were the only thing i missed), but...
i would find it useful to use shorter delay times than 75bpm semi-quaver.
Any chance you could make it go up to 120 or so?

Your site ROCKS!!

OK, scratch that last message. Dumbf**k!
Was wondering why it was labelled 'Groove' + not 'Tempo'.
Obviously haven't played with it enough...
What can I say, fantastic, this plugin really does it for me!

Great job,

Thanks,

Hey man, I lurve the sound on this delay, very nice job, and it makes me feel a lot better about moving away from logic :D

One minor thing, though; I can hear some phasing when I use it as a send, so I'm guessing the wet/dry mix fader doesn't kill the clean signal completely?

What Gives?

Anyway, thanks for one of the best freebies out there.

Posted on Wednesday, March 16, 2005 - 11:30 am:

hi andreas, that's strange.. i don't see a reason why the mix fader shouldn't kill the clean signal completely if set to 0.

I have all your VSTs and this one is no different insofar as it's a class-leader among VSTs. It's an excellent way to learn about how audio effects such as delays work. Very intuitive and easy to use.

John Canoe

Posted on Friday, December 09, 2005 - 01:45 am:

Top ranking. Rip van 1978 here. Cannot get other delays to, er, do this. And it sounds very good indeed. Drifting guitars from Mars: put fretted synth’s String Sculptor (audio or midi-triggered moogish thang), "minimal" preset, slow attack, thru Bionic, automate feedback variation. Wot's happening out there, must get Net, listen to what you guys are doing. I'm a recent guitar and bass-playing convert to sequencers etc, still learning drum programming/sample slashing, but you can get a top Mikey Chung-production-type 16th note hi hat workout going by automating Bionic’s feedback on a suitable sample eq'd for hats... a cheap trick, much better than my midi-writing attempts. Echomania looks good too, when I can get it under control ... thanks again, you could have called it Walls of Jericho too ...

rel. 1.1 is ready for download now.

This is just a recompile of the same plug-in with the latest version of Synthedit.
It will improve overall performance and remove the graphical glitches visible on some host programs.
Please give me some feedback about how the new release works on your system.

thanks

hey.....first time downloader here,
im having trouble im sure through no fault of yours.......iv downloaded this and put the .dll file into the vst plugin folder in cubase...is this the right thing to do as i cant get it to appear in cubase at all..........
i know this is probably very basic but i liked what coldcut did with the plugin so would appreciate the help,
thanks,

First to interruptor, RESPECT DUE, how I wish I'd known about your plugs long ago! Analogic and Bionic are the very actual s**t, the Wow & Flutter is just right. You are talented and I thank you for your great ears and the use you've put them to for the greater glory of dub. Your delays are, I think, as good as anything out there for true analog emulation - Audio Damage DubDelay, whatever.

Second to mark moore - I don't think there SHOULD be a problem using the Cubase vstplugins folder - but it is best practice to create another Vstplugins folder under the "Steinberg" root directory and install all your VSTs there. E.g. X:\Program Files\Steinberg\Vstplugins. Leave the Cubase one for Cubase's own plugins.

peace,
Mike Anderson

One last thing about your plugins interruptor - they all LOOK as good as they sound. There are plenty of free plugins, some sound good, some not so good. But one thing the majority have in common is, terrible GUI design.

Did you get an artist friend to do them? Or is it all your design? Because they are brilliant and professional, and you are obviously a natural.

peace,
Mike.

Posted on Friday, March 24, 2006 - 12:24 am:

Hi Mike
Thanks for all those compliments! Indeed I created the GUIs myself. Some of the control elements like buttons, switches, pots however were created by other people:
- Vera Kinter (http://www.artvera-music.com/)
- xoxos (http://www.xoxos.net/)

I tried to bring some of the handmade improvised and lo-fi vibe which is so typical for dub music to the GUIs. In the case of Bionic Delay and Analogic Delay I had the optical design of seventies consumer grade audio equipment in mind.

Mike Anderson

Posted on Saturday, March 25, 2006 - 10:50 pm:

I'll tell you the truth - I think your delays are THE best VSTs for dub. I think they kick DubDelay's a$$. So there you go. I cannot praise them highly enough, nor sufficiently express my gratitude.

peace,
Mike.

First off: interruptor thanks for those great free dub pieces!

There's one thing that I miss though that mda's dubdelay does: it's feedback goes to 110%, so you can make your sound slowly build up to a huge amount of noise. Second: the delay time is continuously variable. I used to use it in Cubase to make those weird sweeps, open up the feedback, put the delay all the way to the right and then slowly move the delay to the left.
Bu in Tracktion for some reason the automation doesn't anymore.

interruptor

Posted on Wednesday, April 12, 2006 - 02:20 pm:

slacknote:
- if you push the feedback control to 100% you'll get what you want (build up)
- crank up the "smooth control" and the delay time will creep slowly to the time set, thus allowing the sweeps you request.
- i don't know the reason for your problems in tracktion. so far nobody complained about it.

Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 07:32 am:

Thanks a bunch, I wasn't aware of those functions.

The complaints where directed at mda's dubdelay, not yours, yours is fine in Tracktion.

rel. 1.2 is ready for download now.

new feature: parameter "Stereo Width" varies stereo effect from subtle to drastic.

before all stereo echoes were panned hard left / hard right which sounds too extreme in some situations.

enjoy..

can this replace my existing Bionic Delay.dll - meaning when i open tracks where i've used previous versions, can it load the new version? or do i need to keep it as a seperate version, Bionic Delay v1_2.dll?

thanks.

Posted on Sunday, April 23, 2006 - 10:19 pm:

better keep the old version on your system for your existing tracks. on new tracks use the new version.
