Description
K7D is a powerful and affordable, vintage tape delay effect plugin for iOS. K7D recreates the hardware echo machines of the past using Imaginando’s signature style of obsessive analog emulation, but with an enhanced level of control from a sleek, modern interface. Using this approach allows a whole new world of creative possibilities, while still retaining a warm, full-bodied analog sound, bursting with character and personality.
To give K7D it’s distinctive analog flavour, we studied and analysed the tiny details of what makes classic hardware delays great, and painstakingly recreated every subtle nuance for a fantastically authentic sound.
Available as a standalone app and audio unit plugin, you can use it digital audio stations for iOS such as Garage Band, AUM, Cubasis, Auria, Audiobus, etc.

Ratings and Reviews
High quality effects
This is the tape delay you are looking for.
I have the other tape delay apps which have different options than this, but I can’t make any of them sound like this. If you want tape delay - this is the sound you want.
Wow & flutter effects are better than any other tape effect app. Doesn’t destroy source audio but warps the delay taps in the way I assumed the other apps would but never quite did.
Whatever options the other apps have that are not found here, they tend to make the audio sound muddled, not mangled.
I preordered this on the strength of the free DLYM effect this dev offers. If you appreciate the difference in audio quality DLYM has over similar apps then you’ve probably been anticipating any new effects Imaginado had to offer as I have been.

Thanks for your incredible feedback! Much appreciated. It made our day! Best regards
Fantastic Delay
Just the right amount of features and options; not burdened by needless complexity and endless creative choices: in other words, a well thought-out, sleek, and intelligent UI. Nothing to get in between you and your creative flow. Beautiful. Sound is rich and pairs well with anything, spoken word, synths, guitar, television news broadcasts, nature recordings, drive-through restaurant loud-speaker —yeah, anything. Using different LFO shapes, you can get it to sound like a school projector eating an educational-cartoon film-strip. Plus, the developers behind this fantastic buy are top-tier here iOS/iPadOS-land.
I strongly advise you put down your pet turtle —very slow, very gentle, that’s right… no sudden movement… —and give the K7D a try, now!

Thank you for your amazing review!
Nice delay audio unit.
This is actually the first delay audio unit I have purchased, and I am glad I did. There is quite a bit of control to make anything from basic tempo synced delays to crazy sounding effects. It comes with a fair amount of presets some of which can be quite useful right away. Unfortunately with a few of the presets, there were some pops and clicks so to speak, on this iPad Air 2. Other than that, works great and sounds great. It can easily turn a simple sampled instrument into something beautiful and big sounding.
