This looks pretty interesting. Has anyone tried this delay? Looks worth the money.

I know nothing about it.  haven't tried it.
 
looked at the interface and screamed.  too much going on.  looks like a syth more than a delay plugin.
 
why they call it a Feedback Machine for a delay plugin I don't understand.

Downloaded the demo last night and played with it.
 
Gui and controls a bit of effort to get used to. Actually quite a good plug capable of some nice reverbs as well.
 
Follows the evolution of some of the more modern units that focus on in depth modulation of the echo.
 
I use Timeless, Sigmund and PSP 608. This would be a great addition, but can't see where any to die for advantage is in getting this as well.
 
Costs $79 or thereabouts and simple serial number

I have Timeless and Sigmund, and you're probably right about MFM not bringing a whole lot more to the party (although MFM *is* from u-he).  If you haven't done so, be sure and watch the Dan Worrall video demo on the MFM page on the u-he web site.
 
Edit:  Whoa there!!! I take that back about MFM not bringing a whole lot more to the party.  I just watched the video again ... having first seen it maybe a couple of years ago, I had forgotten all the weird and amazing tricks that the video demonstrates that MFM can do.  I don't pretent to understand what Worrall was doing after about the video's half-way point, but it's pretty amazing.  Although, at around that point, he stops using MFM as a delay and starts using it as something else entirely.  I suspect most of us would never have the intuition to use some of the capabilities that are clearly there.

Dmbaer,
 
Saw the video link but raced by it without a clue. The thing is complex enough that there is probably a lot of hidden potential. Reverb to flange to echo. One stop shopping.
 
Makes me wonder though where we are heading (old age Alzheimer's nostalgia and **** (the good old days dementia that is passed on generation to generation...). Back in the 60's, there was little to no competition. If you had a loud amp and could make noise, the chicks melted all over you. Good times. Now everything is getting 95% toward perfect. Anyone over 4 years old has a home computer and publishing an album with technology undreamed of. Seems nowdays, anything critical significant may get lost in the sheer volume of data.
 
End my editorial lament. Good thing back then though, we didn't have hep C or AIDS, so got through the party of IV drug abuse and the good life without being killed for the experience.
 
Noted a crackle in the demo and thought it might be a CPU overload, but looks like a copyright pain in the chalumbas, not a bug.
 
Likely a good purchase if one doesn't have one of the other hi end modulating patriarchs.

I have Timeless also. I purchased MFM2. No doubt it's going to take me time to get to know this thing but hey I still don't know everything Timeless can do. Both complicated in their own right. The presets are pretty usable. It actually sounds very good to me. My even sound better than Timeless but that could be because it's new to me. I've been able to create some nice sounds with Timeless with just manipulating the presets. I thinks MFM2 has potential.

When I use a delay, I usually have a specific effect in mind, and tend to judge delays by how easy it is to go from imagination to reality. When I tried MFM, it did not suit me at all. I got some very cool effects, but it was entirely by accident.
 
Still, there's something to be said for serendipity. Valhalla UberMod similarly falls into the Forrest Gump category of effects, which is to say you never know what you're gonna get. Sometimes it works wonders while other times I just say the heck with it, pull up the good ol' sensible Sonitus and move on.
 
Timeless2, I think, successfully straddles the line between depth and simplicity. Oh, how I wish I owned it! During the Christmas sale I could have gotten it for $58, but no matter how many couch cushions I upended, all I could find was $13.58.

Got to reevaluate this thing. It is a monster. Brings some unique ambiences to the mix I can't get with my triad of the last delay vst's I was ever going to buy in this life.
 
About to pull the trigger on the plastic. Lord Krishna help...The flesh is weak...
 
Wife is going to kill me.

I too nearly acquired this but...have resisted... there are folks making some nice patches for it...b sure to check the u-he library as I can't recall who created them
