I have probably most part of all popular delays from market, but no favorites. Noted that more often use built in daw, btw Studio One have quite interesting and useful stock delays, each with his own fun mini-trick. But ofcourse i not mean that plugs not need, just i unable to see factor of that difference, which make delay favorite. (But I like to read such info from other people, it's interesting.)
From the last that I used in a plugin form, can note already mentioned EC300 - very good work. UVI Relayer, with his interesting IR colorizatioin (Modnetic uses similar approach, and noticeable cpu eating too). Arturia Eternity, technogenic palette and memorable modulation system.

They all sound the same in the mix anyways.

This is true to some extent, particularly for the most basic delay needs, but that varies from DAW to DAW and the bundled delays often lack some of the more creative features, like swing, delay pattern sequencer, ducking, saturation or other effects, etc.

FWIW, I was responding to the OP, who is looking for a free, basic delay to replace his obsolete 32-bit free, basic delay.

Anyone uses/compared IK Space Delay vs AudioThing Outer Space vs Arturia Tape-201? Which one do you prefer?

It's good, it's reliable. It's not supported any more and is 32bit.

I don't think I will ever replace it, I'll probably still rely on it for years to come. It's simple, not too complicated, but with just the right amount of control and character to get what I want.
I would like to stop relying so heavily on this plugin - despite it's usefulness - and maybe add a new delay to my arsenal...uh....a second delay.

It doesn't need to be freeware - though freeware is a nice bonus. Tell me what you use.

Here is a nice free one: https://www.kvraudio.com/product/spaces ... al-entropy

Space Delay and Outer Space sound better to me than Tape-201. Outer Space offers more possibilities for less money than Space Delay. And AudioThing is working on version 2.0 of Outer Space, so I expect it to become even better in 2021.

Now Guitar Rig users also get Replica GR and Replika Shimmer to contend with.

GR6 has become quite an impressive FX rack. Replika GR misses a few of XT's advanced features, but it still sounds as good as XT. Funny that they've added a Normal and Wide mode as I usually put L/R Offset (in the Panning menu) to 0.0 ms. Some other developers' delays have that stereo widening built-in without the possibility to turn it off. Replika GR still is a bit heavy on the CPU though.

Since I got Echoboy, ive never looked back

EchoBoy still a very good thing, but lack of automation for more than half parameters does it applicable just for achieve rather common results, that sad, being controlable in realtime his rich engine would be give many unusual sound tricks.

I sure think you're talking about EQ not delay. Delays can sound very different even in a busy mix.

I just picked this up for the fun of it ...

I'm using a Reminder and the delay on my Lyra-8 more often than not these days tbh ... but i think the Echoes T7E will be great for sound design.

Cool example on how lifeless a (clean) plug-in delay can sound.

What Delays are you using?
