    Looks powerful, flashy and sounds really good, too:

    "Overview

    Four independent delay lines

    Sigmund is far from just another delay: it consists of four discrete delay units, each with its own, independent set of parameters offering an incredible degree of sound-shaping freedom. There's an ancient saying, often attributed to Aristotle: The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. With Sigmund, this is especially true: each of the delay lines has complementary modules built in, independent from the feedback loop:

    - Multi-mode Filter (can work either in or outside of the feedback loop)
    - Overdrive module
    - Amplitude modulator (for tremolo effects)

    But that's not all: Sigmund has two general-purpose LFOs which can be used to auto-modulate some of the delay lines' internal parameters. Used subtly, these LFOs can be used to delicately bring a sound to life, to add gently flowing, modulated warmth reminiscent of the analog delays of yesteryear. At extreme settings, these LFOs are capable of twisting the input signal utterly beyond recognition and into what you might expect transmissions from an alien civilization to sound like!

    This all adds up to an immensely powerful architecture, the potential of which can be explored nearly endlessly and often with hardly predictable outcomes.

    @ 5t33z0,

    Thank You for your announcement ! :wink:

    As it seems that at this time there's a little traffic jam with your provided Link, here's a snapshot and some additional info for the other users of this Forum...

    and a few more in-depth Features :

    Multitude of purposes

    Sigmund can be applied in nearly any configuration in the studio. It can be used as an insert effect for an instrument or bus channel, or as a versatile send effect with the help of a parameter lock that allows for auditioning presets without having to readjust the wet/dry mix with each new selection. The plugin can be used universally not only as a delay, but also as a :

    - Tremolo
    - Filter
    - Limiter
    - Distortion


    Each of these possibilities above is a result of the direct usage of the various modules that are available in the processing path. But also indirectly, depending on parameter values, there are other possibilities, including :

    Chorus – from small delay time values.
    Flanger – from small delays with feedback added.
    Spatializer – by applying delays on delay lines with different signal domains (M/S or L/R) and phase shifts between the channels.


    Sigmund features summary :

    4 independent delay lines, each with :

    Multimode filter
    Overdrive unit
    Separately configured pre and delay times with optional Tempo sync
    Delay times down to 0.1ms
    Selectable channel mode (L+R or M+S)
    Stereo spread
    High quality delay line algorithm (no aliasing, no artifacts)


    Two multi-purpose LFOs :

    LFO phase retrigg option via MIDI
    6 waveforms
    Tempo synchronization as an option


    Flexible Routing (9 possible topologies)

    Convenient mixer

    Master Limiter

    Presets
    Over 200 factory presets
    Advanced, file-based preset browser


    Miscellaneous
    Advanced MIDI learn
    Parameter mapping for VST / AU automation
