I already have Valhalla Uber mod and Fabfilter timeless 2, and for the style of music I make they cover all bases. However, who doesn't want to take a look at a potential freebee.

I don't like the Melda's "Microsoft Excel" UI. They offer the option to tweak the colours of it, but it needs a total graphic overhaul. It's like the people at Melda think musicians working in a bank. Look at what Fabfilter did with Pro EQ2 THATS designing a UI with a view to productivity AND creativity.

I spent many years making experimental music, soundscapes and aural installation art, and can imagine that this plug in would have been a joy to use in those contexts.

My overriding feeling after playing with it for about an hour is "so what". The 2 awesome delays I already have (and Uber Mod can do much more than just delay fx) are designed with so much more thought.

There's a reason why someone made up the saying "less is more", because in some circumstances it is, and for me Mspectral Delay suffers from 'too much' that has been lazily applied. If you want to make a plug in deep, don't just throw tonnes of options onto tabbed screens. Think of ways you can achieve the same deptht via a simpler UI. Once again, as a guide, I'd say look at what fabfilter do with their plug ins .

If you want to make some FX or do experimental soundscapes, MspectralDelay might give you some joy, and as it's free for the next 10 days I would say its worth a try. But I would not recommend anyone spend cash on it until they've seriously played the hell out of the demo version. Fabfilter Timeless 2 and Valhalla uber mod are vastly better value for money (IMHO)
