Sigmund

Delay is one of the most often used effects in music production. Its function is made obvious by its name, and you can easily recognize it when you hear it. Despite this, the effect is pretty versatile; a large amount of delay can make a track sound almost psychedelic, while just a little amount can be used to enrich and highlight certain parts of your song.

Any digital audio workstation you’re going to use comes with at least one delay function (although there are usually more) which tends to prove quite efficient. But once your producer skills advance, you may feel the need to explore new possibilities for your music. You may want to just test new plugins to see and hear if they can really help you push things forward.

Sigmund could be one such plugin. Specifically designed to create a powerful delay effect for your mixes, the plugin features not one, not two, but four delay units. Each of them has the same parameters, which can be adjusted differently, and used simultaneously via intelligent routing. You can manipulate the effect using a filter, an overdrive section, an LFO, and an envelope, to name just a few of the features. You may also test Sigmund’s many presets and listen to how they affect your music.
