Metric Halo Dirty Delay v4 is a versatile feedback delay plug-in capable of producing a wide range of sonic textures and movements for your music productions. Featuring dual delay lines with crossfeed, feedback, phase invert, and distortion, it offers exceptional control over delay characteristics—from clean or dirty, to vintage or futuristic, subtle or nasty. With Metric Halo Character v4 in the delay paths, you can integrate the rich harmonic saturation of classic analog circuitry, adding texture and saturation for subtle coloration or aggressive distortion of the delayed signal. Additionally, the plug-in supports tempo syncing to host, manual input, or tap tempo for precise delay timing. And with a 2-band parametric filter for shaping the delayed sound, Dirty Delay provides comprehensive tools for sculpting delay effects to fit any mix in the studio or live onstage.

The user-friendly interface with adjustable size options for various screen resolutions is designed to be intuitive, providing clear visual feedback and easy access to all parameters. Whether used to add depth and dimension to a mix or to create wild experimental sounds, the Metric Halo Dirty Delay plug-in is a powerful tool for any audio engineer or producer looking to enhance their sonic palette with a touch of analog-style dirtiness.
