Good Old Sonitus Delay...

...just popped in to say I still love the Sonitus delay.
We've gotten a lot of new delays in the X series, yet I still find the Sonitus delay to be quite musical.
 
...and I love it.

    It's my secret weapon for creating big stereo spreads with guitar.
     
    I was writing an article on how to do that, and given the huge number of Sonar screen shots I use to illustrate articles, thought I'd mix it up and find something else that did the job. Well, it wasn't easy...out of all the delays on my system, only the PSP Audioware tapped delay and Guitar Rig Twin Delay gave enough resolution at short delay times. I use the Sonitus delay 90% of the time I need to use delay.

    The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

    ...just used on another stereo acoustic piece...
    The first one tonight wound up with Guitar Rig 5 Traktor Delay and the ensemble chorus ...both mixed well under the two tracks.... sounded great ... the second had a more musical quality thanks to the Sonitus delay.
     
    ...wish I could interpret the math that went into building the Sonitus ...that way I could identify why it's so good at what it does...you're right ...the resolution is beautiful OTH ... it's like a few Jimi songs I never learned ...yet listen to frequently.... I know nothing except I like them!
     
    Thanks Craig!!!! ...you're one of my favorites too!!!

    Absolutely agree!!!
     
    The ability to filter the delay along with the independent stereo control of time, mix and feedback, make it the most used of all the delays I have by far!!

    Sonitus was my go to delay for years. It is a good one. Fabfilter Timeless 2 has replaced it as my go to delay but even on sale, which occurs rarely (currently on sale for the second time in history), it ain't cheap @ $86.

    +1 here :-)
    I like the complete Sonitus suite. Just a few weeks ago i discovered how mighty the Sonitus Gate is, it has some unique and really useful feature that i've not seen at any other gate!

    Call me incorrigable, but I bought and tried over the last 2 years several (not cheap)
    VST delays and the most look much better than the sonitus delay,
    but in the end the sonitus delay mostly fits better.
     
    It´s a classic........

    Have there been any updates to it in the last 5 years? What's the current version number?

    Agreed. I still use the Sonitus delay and gate on most projects, and even the compressor and reverb get used quite a lot. I love the flexibility and the GUIs. Very intuitive and lots of useful visual feedback with no "fluff."

    Not sure there have been any changes in the last several years. I think it just gets recompiled with each new version.
     
    BTW I like the Sonitus plugs as well.

    No plan to include the VST version? (It'd be nice if we could use it outside Sonar as well)

    The Sonitus plug-ins sold separately are 32bit only. The only 64bit version of the Sonitus Suite is the DX version bundled with SONAR. Can't see Cakewalk bundling the 32bit VST version just so they can be used in other products.

    Oh, I see. Not sure if a 32-bit only plugin suite for $99 is still appealing, but it's unlikely they release a 64-bit VST version of the suite. Thanks for the info.

    The Sonitus plug-ins are not locked to Cakewalk. The bundled version is DX. Many hosts require a DX-to-VST wrapper to load the plug-ins.

    +1 for Sonitus Delay!  I just seem to be able to get what I am looking for more quickly with it than with some of our other delays.  The Nomad stuff is great but can, for me, require too much fiddling, and the VKFX seems to have a kind of shot-in-the-dark approach.  
     
    With all the new stuff at our disposal, I tend to forget the Sonitus suite has some of the most effective and straightforward effects in the Cakewalk arsenal.

    For me part of continue to use most all of the sonitus bits is inertia. And way too little time to learn everything new.
     
    Still would be driving my 98 Honda accord had a tree branch severed in the Michigan ice storm had not come to rest upon its very roof.  The locking functions, and the windows functions on the new CRV are abysmally idiotic.
