This table compares some of the delays currently available. The CPU usage has been measured using Sound Forge and reading the CPU % value. Although this is not a purely scientific method of testing, it gives a fairly accurate reading.
All delays have been tested on a 44100Hz 16-bit stereo file, using 24-bit mode.
Test system: AOpen AX5T-3.1 board, Intel 200MMX CPU, 32 MB SDRAM.

Notes |
| Sonic Foundry Simple Delay |
7% |
The speed makes it useful for simple tasks, but it has absolutely no
features... |
| Sonic Foundry Multi-Tap Delay |
14-27% |
Like the "simple delay", but with 8 taps, a chorus and a
low-pass filter. You can only control the channels independently by a simple pan control,
which adjusts both the delay and the feedback. Combine this with the (poor) speed and
well..... |
| HyperPrism DX MultiDelay |
15% |
Just about no features. "MultiDelay" means 2 taps. There is also
a SingleDelay and an Echo available, they are just as featureless |
| timeworks Delay 6022 |
7% |
Independent control of delay time, delay volume, feedback and
high-frequency damping for each channel. Clip light, analogue style meter.
Controllable "ganging" on stereo controls (to ease control of both channels at a
time.) Adjustable metering. |
