Slap Happy delivers the classic slapback echo, tuned to sit in the mix from the first knob turn. Width opens the repeat into stereo, Ambience adds short reflections for a deep stereo image, and built-in sidechain compression ducks the echo while the dry signal is playing. The result is instant vintage depth — without clutter, mud, or endless tweaking.

Based on a classic delay trick, Stereoize takes a mono signal and turns it into a wide, textured stereo sound.

About Space & Modulation plugins
Space and modulation plugins place a sound in an environment or set it in motion. Reverb simulates the reflections of a physical space, delay repeats the signal at set intervals, and modulation effects such as chorus, flanger and phaser vary pitch or phase over time to create movement and width.
Reverb and delay are the main tools for depth. A short room reverb glues a drum kit together, a long plate sits a vocal in front of a wash of tail, and a tempo-synced delay adds rhythmic space without the density a reverb brings. Modulation works across the stereo field instead, thickening a thin guitar or widening a synth pad that sounds static on its own.
Both are easy to overuse. The plugins here are made by mixers who tend to reach for these effects on sends rather than inserts, and their defaults generally reflect that habit.
Reverb simulates the many overlapping reflections of a physical space, arriving as a continuous tail. Delay produces distinct, countable repeats. Reverb tends to place a sound somewhere, while delay adds rhythmic space and usually keeps the original more intelligible.
A send is the usual choice, because it lets several tracks share one space and keeps the dry signal untouched. Inserts make sense when the effect is part of the sound itself, such as a heavily processed guitar where the reverb is not meant to be separable.
A chorus copies the signal, delays the copy slightly, and varies that delay over time, which detunes the copy relative to the original. Mixed back together the result sounds thicker and wider, as though more than one performance is present.
