________________________________________________ 
 
When it comes to delay, it’s easy to boil down the concept to just a simple echo. But your music deserves so much more. Modern producers should be pushing for motion, dimension, and a stereo experience that’ll demand immediate attention. Instead of just repeating sound, your delay effects can now be more experimental than ever before, reimagining dimensional delay. 
 
WA Production's Delay Rings is a brand new dynamic delay engine, designed to put sound in constant, rhythmic orbit around your audience. This is way beyond a standard ping-pong effect; it’s a dual-channel FX suite that weaves two independent delays into complex, swirling patterns. This creates a genuinely three-dimensional soundscape that pulses and dances in the stereo field.

From mild to wild, use Delay Rings to give vocals subtle width, transform standard synths into hypnotising sonic orbits, or create chaotic stereo-shattering transition effects. This plugin is wholly designed to spiralise your sound, and will become an essential part of your effects workflow.  

Rings Of Power

Delay Rings is built around two independent delay engines that pulse and move in a circular pattern through the stereo field to create mind-melting delay sequences. 
Independent Controls: Set the delay Length (straight / dotted / triplet), Feedback, and Gain for each ring independently, programming exciting interwoven rhythmic patterns.
Clockwise / Counterclockwise: Control the direction of each ring's orbit for complex, swirling motion that circles your listener's headspace.
Enable/Disable: Easily audition or deactivate each ring to simplify patterns or focus the effects.
Filters: Sculpt your delay trails with dedicated High-Pass and Low-Pass filters to clean up low-end rumble or shave off brittle highs.

Modulation Madness

Delay itself is just one step on your audio’s journey, as dedicated modulation and sound-shaping effects can be dialled in to dramatically alter the character and functionality of your signal. 
Modulation: Add subtle shimmer or intense warp with dedicated Depth and Rate controls for effects that drift and evolve in unexpected ways. 
Reverb: Use the dedicated Dry / Wet and Time controls to launch your delay trails into infinite space, adding depth and decay.
Stereo Width: Widen or narrow the stereo placement for both the delay and reverb.
Ducker: Ensure your main signal cuts through the mix, automatically reducing the delay volume when the input signal plays, with adjustable Release settings. 

Features:

- Double delay effect for spatial echo processing
- Twin rings with independent Gain, Feedback and Filter controls
- Orbit each delay clockwise or counterclockwise
- Modulation, Reverb & Stereo Width controls
- Auto-ducker module for cleaner signals
- Optional linked wet / dry Gain controls
- AB comparison & Undo / Redo
- Clean, resizable interface
- Responsive & CPU friendly
- Flexible factory presets
- Full PDF Manual & Tutorial video

CHÁVEZ — Live Session · Spring Surfest Las Américas Pro 2025 (Parte 1 · 3h)

Craig Gordon was a moniker assigned to Delta Mirror front man, Chris Acosta, by friends as an inside joke that lasted until 2012 when, after a dark few years, he was introduced to himself for the very first time. Where The Delta Mirror’s first release, Machines that Listen, was a concept album written entirely from the perspective of other people, Better Unsung is a more personal look into the musician’s life. Thusly, it was necessary for Chris Acosta to return. Far more dynamic than it’s older sister, this record is step away from the glitchy electronics of Machines. It’s track list harbors more diversity in instrumentation and theme and even pays homage to song writing inspirations My Morning Jacket and Q Lazzuras. 
While David Bolt and Karrie K do appear on a couple tracks each, this record was, for the most part, a solo effort.  He did, however, have help from a handful of inspirational friends. Better Unsung is co produced by beat magician and Anticon Records co founder, Alias, with cameos from Blue Sky Black Death (Fake Four), fellow Alias collaborator Tarsier and, now label mate, Danny Fujikawa of Chief (Domino) who is also releasing a solo album on Lightwave this year under the name SWiM.  
By day Chris Acosta directs and edits music videos and is currently in production for the long awaited first Delta Mirror video. He has been remixed by a long list of peers like Busdriver, Alias, Blue Sky Black Death, Odd Nosdam and Bomar as well as shared the stage with acts like Chelsea Wolfe, School of Seven Bells, Apple Seed Cast, The Morning Benders, Dawes, Sleepy Sun and Sister Crayon. New remixes and 2013-14 tour schedule coming soon.
