Groove Delay

PreSonus

Groove Delay is a four-tap, tempo-synced delay plugin with variable filters and a flexible beat grid, designed to create tempo-locked delay patterns ranging from simple subdivision taps to intricate evolving grooves or granular effects. It features per-tap control over level, pan, and filter cutoff frequency alongside swing modulation and cutoff LFO for dynamic, rhythmically-integrated delays.

Key Features

01Four-tap tempo-synced delay architecture
02Variable beat grid from 1/2 to 1/64 note values
03Per-tap filter control with Type Mix X/Y adjustment
04Tap-level control of Level, Pan, Cutoff, and Swing parameters
05Cutoff LFO with tempo sync and -1 to 1 amount range
06Tap Groove adjustment from Triolic (66.67%) to Dotted (150%)
07Grid Display with color-coded editing for Level, Pan, Cutoff, Swing, and LFO
08Effect Depth mix control from 0 to 100%

Things to Try

  • 01Use Swing parameter to adjust off-beat taps between straight and dotted values for swing groove characteristics
  • 02Drag nodes horizontally in Grid Display to adjust each tap's placement in time across the beat grid
  • 03Apply negative Cutoff LFO Amount values (down to -1) for inverted phase modulation on filter cutoff
  • 04Set Effect Depth to 0 and increase Feedback Dry/Wet up to 99% for pronounced cascading delays (avoiding 100% to prevent runaway feedback)
