Praise for Lo-Fi Tape Delay

I have been struggling for a long time to find a delay that sat “just right” with my main preset. I’d settled on the DM-Two for a few months, but it never quite felt right. I recently swapped it for Lo-Fi tape and bam - just what I was looking for! With just a small tweak to the EQ section, I finally found the natural fit for this preset. Do not overlook this one!

While I am dishing out praise, let’s hear it for the ducking feature in the delay block. Such a powerful little parameter!
 
I use the Tape Delay, but for essentially the same reasons. Less frequency response, and I add cuts to reduce it even more, and ducking. I do love the modulation from the tape!

Seems like I'll want to try the LoFi. Would you upload your block for fun?
 
It's pretty boring, really. And I'm not entirely sure how to upload a block, so here are my changes from the stock setting:
HEAD 1 100%
HEAD 2 0%
Master Feedback 15%
Level -15dB (running in parallel)
Ducker Attenuation 9dB
Threshold -45dB
Release Time 10ms

When you save your block either channel or whole block, it will be in the specified folder for your saved blocks. You can attach it etc. I’ll check this out in a bit. Thanks for posting.
