I am not sure guys what you are talking about.

I understand that you can multiply something - this is very clear. You can
even forget about plugins and just take the sound and paste it with a lower
volume.
I cannot always point a finger to what exactly i do not like about delays.
CALF vintage delays is nice, but the fact that I can make it pan ping-pong
only by setting different time in L and R is not good. And the whole
Subdivide control is very confusing. In many simple VSTs you have 1, 2/4,
3/16 kinda settings and it is all tied to a tempo. Echoverse in Rakarrack is
very good.
