Recording and mixing engineer’s know that timing their delays and reverbs can make their tracks sound larger than life. While most delay plug-ins sometime provide a rudimentary timing setting, great engineer’s know that the secret to a timed delay is in all of the denominations and sub-denominations that a plug-in can’t provide. That’s where Bobby Owsinski’s Delay Genie app comes in.
The Delay Genie app replaces the delay chart that many studios use to set the delay time, or the automatic timing of a plug-in. After the BPM is directly entered or tapped in, the Delay Genie will instantly display:
In the Live mode the Delay Genie app can also calculate the delay time from the stage to a delay speaker stack in a live sound reinforcement situation, and even account for differential in temperature that can affect the timing.
The Delay Genie app can be used for:
What's more, the price is right. It's FREE, although it will cost $.99 if you want to remove the advert.
Give the Delay Genie a shot and let me know what you think. It's now available in the Apple iTunes App Store.
The Delay Genie app replaces the delay chart that many studios use to set the delay time, or the automatic timing of a plug-in. After the BPM is directly entered or tapped in, the Delay Genie will instantly display:
- delays in 1/4, 1/8, 1/6, 1/32, 1/64 note time increments
- delays in triplet time increments for 1/4, 1/8, 1/6, 1/32, 1/64 notes
- delays in dotted note time increments for 1/4, 1/8, 1/6, 1/32, 1/64 notes
In the Live mode the Delay Genie app can also calculate the delay time from the stage to a delay speaker stack in a live sound reinforcement situation, and even account for differential in temperature that can affect the timing.
The Delay Genie app can be used for:
- discovering the tempo of a track by tapping it in
- setting the delay time to make a track larger than life
- setting the delay time so it fits better in the track
- setting the delay time so it sticks out of the track
- setting reverb pre-delay time
- setting reverb decay time
- setting the delay time between speakers in a sound reinforcement situation.
