Bomb Factory’s MoogerFooger Analog Delay is a plug-in that is modeled after the Moog Analog Delay pedal, with pretty much the same make up. You can buy this plug-in either individually or within the MoogerFooger bundle. It comes in just about any plug-in format, but I’m currently running it as an RTAS plug-in in Pro Tools. It shouldn’t be difficult at all to install this plug-in on your machine, as installing this entire bundle on my iLok and my computer only took a short while. Most users shouldn’t encounter compatibility errors since there are versions of this plug-in for just about every system. The interface of the plug-in is also quite simple to understand, while still maintaining a good amount of control over your tone. The plug-in contains parameters for delay time, feedback, mix, output level, drive, and input level, as well as switches for choosing either a short or long delay and a high pass filter. I didn’t need the assistance of a manual to learn how to use this plug-in.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Right now I’m running the MoogerFooger Analog Delay plug-in in Pro Tools LE 8 that I run on a Mac Book Pro with 4 GB of RAM and a 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. I run Pro Tools LE 8 with a Digi 002R audio interface primarily, but will also run it with a Digidesign Micro Box if I’m on the go, and a Pro Tools HD system if I’m in the professional studio where I work. I always run this plug-in on an auxiliary channel to save processing power regardless of where I’m working from, but it doesn’t take up much computer power anyway. All systems are different, but as long as you have a system where you’re currently able to run your DAW and current plug-ins comfortably, you shouldn’t have a problem.
OVERALL OPINION
If I’m looking for a warmer type of delay sound in a plug-in, the Bomb Factory MoogerFooger Analog Delay is the first place I’ll look. I don’t use it as a traditional delay for a ping-pong or tap delay or anything like that, rather I use it mostly for slapback. The presets are great starting points, although it’s definitely not too difficult to get a good sound starting from scratch. If I’m looking for something a bit more subtle that doesn’t trail off, this is definitely my go to delay, and this is the type of sound that I usually go for. While this plug-in doesn’t touch the real Moogerfooger Analog Delay pedal, it’s still a great too to have around at this low cost…
