im looking for a nice delay and compare with mine, the most omportant things are that it's versatile, includes different delay styles but is still easy to use and understand with a nice GUI!

Fabfilter Timeless 2

Soundtoys EchoBoy is super easy to use. I absolutely love it. My favorite by far.

Timeless 2

Thousands of different and all valid replies possible, I have Waves H-Delay (simply sounds good) and AD Ricochet (for rhythmic multi tap thingies). Both have a nice and clear GUI.

Timeless 2
Sometimes I use one of Live's Delays when I don't need anything complicated.

LeMasque. Crazy stuff.
Timeless demo was great but I will get it with the bundle as a better deal overall.

Really use EchoBoy alot here and its definately my goto delay, Then Valhalla Ubermod is worth trying and is whack as you want it to be. Another that gets used heavily is Variety Of Sound's NastyDLA Mk II and sometimes the SoundHack delaytrio plus both of the last two mentioned are free
Others that haven't been mentioned but are good would IMveryhumbleHO include XILS-lab LeMasque, ReaPlugs ReaDelay, Dimtry Sches DiversionFX CM, PSP Audioware have some good ones (a monster multitap and a simpler and dirtier sounding one plus the 42 and 85), Resound by Loomer is dead simple and sounds good, Sandford Delay 2 is quality (don't know if its available anymore) and the NI GR5 delays are good/flexable, IK AT3 has some good ones also.

If I had to pick three and stick with them then I'd go for - SoundToys EchoBoy, Variety Of Sound NastyDLA Mk II and the SoundHack DelayTrio (plus whatever host of choice comes with) FWIW. FabFilter's Timeless 2 is damned great also but I have delays sorted otherwise I'd be in for it

The following are excellent. I list them in order of my personal ranking:

1. RP Delay (Rob Papen) Absolutely excellent. Amazingly versatile, infinitely tweakable, and includes presets that do stuff I didn't even think delays could do.

2. Timeless 2 (Fabfilter)- Also excellent. Easy to use with pristine sound. Very often, just the default preset is enough of what I'm looking for.

3. Uhbik D - (U-he) Somewhat unique interface with 5 delay points. Only available as part of the excellent Uhbiks pack.

always retro delay for me

Soundtoys Echoboy... and Valhalla Übermod when I need "not-so-conventional" delays.

My policy for the past couple of years has been to just get *one* top quality tool in each category and delete everything else. For delay that means Timeless 2

I love delay use use it heaps, but between the "delay bank" that comes with FL Stusio and "Traktor Delay"(this is my go-to for straight forward easy to dial in ping-pong delay) in Guitar Rig I'm pretty happy, but I'll be watching this thread, like I said, I love delay, it's replaced reverb for ambience for me a lot recently.

Loomer's shift V2 does it for me:

My top 3:

SoundToys Echoboy
FabFilter Timeless2
PSP Echo

Echoboy and Timeless are more versatile, but the sound of PSP echo is too good to pass up
