KVRDC12: Minimal System Instruments "Delay Studio"

We are now in the download and voting stage of the KVR Developer Challenge 2012. This news item features an entry called Delay Studio by Minimal System Instruments. You can download it for free here.

Here's what they say about it:

Delay Studio from Minimal System Instruments is a powerful and massively creative multiband delay plugin which gives you all of the tools needed to create your ideal delay/echo effect. From weird and wacky long modulated delays to workhorse multi-taps and analogue inspired echoes the Delay Studio will turn any flat, uninspiring sound into a beautiful sonic masterpiece.

Features:

• 3 fully configurable independent delay bands (Low/Mid/Hi) with complete and accurate control over the frequency width of each band (Frequency Range 0hz to 20,000hz).
• Each band is split in to left and right channels with independent delay time and feedback.
• Comprehensive filter bank section. Each band has its own fully featured filter on both left and right channels complete with cutoff and resonance controls. (Filter types include Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass, Peaking, and Band Reject). Each filter can be modulated using the multimode LFOs which can also be tempo synced or free running. A total of six filters and six LFOs.
• Built on an accurate crossover algorithm. As with the rest of our plugin range, we model our algorithms on actual physical analogue hardware to achieve the most accurate sound possible.
• VU meters on all bands for visual monitoring.
• Input and Output level controls allow easy attenuation of both the incoming and outgoing audio signals.
• Full automation and controller mapping. All parameters in Delay Studio can be easily mapped to any MIDI controller or MIDI keyboard for complete tactile real-time control. All parameters are designed to be fully automated in all DAWs.
• Balance control to accurately modify the position of the sound in the stereo field.
• Logical and easy-to-use user interface. Minimal System Instruments products are specifically designed to enhance our user's workflow. We intentionally place all parameter controls on the front end of the GUI to make modifying sounds a breeze (No hidden menus or parameters here!).
• Low CPU usage. Our code is fully streamlined and optimised to make Delay Studio as efficient on your resources as possible.

Delay Studio is a plugin that invites creativity and experimentation.
