I actually really like the PSP Leixon 42 delay. Sounds great, easy to use.

I'm reading all of your suggestions and opinions. I'm poised to pursue what appears to be a good deal for a very powerful delay.

But the Timeless 2 delay demo reminds me of an infomercial. "But wait! There's more!"  Watching the demo it just gets more and more complicated looking. "Thought you'd seen enough?  Now let's make it even more complicated!"

Aside from that objective ribbing on the demo, it is pretty impressive so I'm likely to get it. Unless one of your comments above causes me to rethink as I look into those alternatives mentioned.

Well I just toured through some demos and reviews of all the alternates mentioned above. 

It turns out I'm now even more motivated to get the Timeless 2.

As complicated and powerful as it is, it looks like it would be a lot more fun than the alternatives. The UI is more attractive as well.  And the delay sounds I heard from the demo sound much more inviting and intriguing.

So I'm just about over the line. I may join BitFlipper and start searching through my couch cushions for some change to get this.

I've had T2 for a while now but not had much of a chance to put it through its paces. I'm looking forward to manipulating its settings via automation rather than simply using it as a static delay, if you know what I mean...

All Fabfilter plugins have a free 30 day trial period; there is no need to purchase anything from them based solely on the videos and reviews.

You're right.  I know that's not their intention, but the video can be intimidating.  The graphic interface looks really cool and well thought out - but it is so "foreign" than what I'm used to.  And the video goes so quickly that I have trouble keeping up with what they are doing.  I would guess that once you get the hang of how they do things graphically it becomes easy?

To those Fabfilter users: Is there some learning curve to the graphical interface?  Or is it pretty easy?   And once you get used to one FF plug is the next one easier to learn?
 
And - once you start using these plugins do you think that this graphic interface is superior or more intuitive than more conventional interfaces (like Sonitus)?

As you know I'm a Fab fan. Once you suss the basic interface...which is really not that hard (watch Dan Worral's tutorials)...you can operate most all of their plugs with ease. There is definitely a learning curve. But it's not as steep as it appears. And T2 is definitely top tier.  Very powerful.

I'm going to pick-up T2 sometime this weekend.
Too good to pass up...

Have you tried FXExpansions Bloom yet?
 
I have not, but I did download the manual and skim through it.  Very impressive piece of gear.  I bought FXpansion's Etch for 20 bucks in a no-brainer sale, and it has much the same design philosophy.  FXpansion said that too many of their customer's were majorly PO-ed about the Etch no-brainer, so we won't be seeing that with Bloom.  For twenty bucks, or even twice that, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
 
Like a lot of you, I've got a number of delay/echo plugs (including Timeless 2) ... and just how many of these to you need really?  Bloom is very cool, but the powerful features (and they are impressively so) are not things you'd end up using all that frequently I suspect.

Yeah, I think I'm going to pick this one up as well.
 
Definitely a nice delay with tons of options & flexibility.
