A stereo delay with an internal sidechain that ducks the echoes while the input signal is playing and lets them come through in the gaps.

Dynamic Delay brings a technique that would otherwise require a separate sidechain compressor into a single plug-in: only once the input signal falls below the threshold do the echoes become clearly audible. This keeps vocals in particular clean and fills the gaps with delays. The echoes can be shaped with analogue-modelled 36 dB filters (Lowcut and Highcut), a one-knob reverb based on AR1, Detune for organic pitch variation and distortion based on Boost X. The left and right channels have their own delay times and feedback amounts.
