because there's a huge quality difference between those plugins.

Quality how? a delay is simply a replication of the original sound right? so wouldn't the quality of the delay be determined by the quality of the original sound? I mean, delays don't really change the sound as such, just repeat it... Perhaps i'll try a side by side comparison between my DAW's delay and one of those VSTs mentioned.

Yes and buying a Kia is the same as a BMW.

well, if a delay just repeats the exact same digital information it will sound very static. beside that complex delays like echoboy have a lot more features than just a simple delay.

good delays have gravity and hf options and eq

When i rewire into FL im quite partial of ohmboyz plugins.

Bionic Delay is a great delay plugin for really long wide feedbackish delays:

Does anyone know a delay with ADSR options? with a trigger or a gate or something that can be modified? also are there any delays with "reverse" effect on them beside that built in FM8 one?
