Zen Delay Virtual
After the phenomena of the Zen Delay hardware unit, and more than a year of intensive development work, the Zen Delay Virtual plugin, aka ZDV, is now out.
For this the Ninja Tune / Erica Synths team teamed up with VCV code wizard Raphael Hoffman to create a powerful effects plugin with extreme possibilities and playability.
ZDV is not simply a digital replica or replacement of the (admittedly universally acclaimed) original hardware, but an addition to it.
Like its metal boxed voodoo tube progenitor, ZDV is about opening up the joy of playing, experimenting, mutating and mashing sounds.
But the approaches and requirements for live use are much different from studio recording. Which is where the ZDV is designed to shine.
Quite apart from the complete automation possibilities afforded by the DAW…
The new LFO page breathes surprising rhythmic animation to life, controlling Filter and Delay, allowing chorus effect, drones and constantly evolving experimentation thanks to the FM and AM controls.
The preset manager helps to save your own effect settings. Comes with a selection of killer presets from the developer's talented team of sound smiths such as Mijk van Dijk, Nerk from TokTok, Dr Walker of Air Liquide, Indian electronic artist Kiss Nuka and others.
The groove timings of the various triplets and dotted delay times were requested by many Zen Delay hardware users and Erica Synths had to say YES let’s swing the Zen.
Unlike the hardware, it’s also possible to change the routing between the delay and filter stages, even inserting the filter within the feedback loop.
The ZDV is a studio secret weapon for all possible instruments: drums, basses, keys, guitars, vocals, FX, Foley ....no matter your choice of instruments or sonic sources, the ZDV will help you refine, redefine and remould your sound in fascinating ways.
And no matter in which sounds and music genres you delight, ZDV is an audio ally of the finest mettle.
Finally, it should be mentioned that for every license sold, one five-year old oak tree is planted by the Liquid Sky artistcollective reforestation project in southern Portugal, cared for until the tree can survive by itself.
