FabFilter Timeless 3 is a vintage-inspired tape delay plugin designed to cover a broad range of delay effects while offering extensive creative options. It features a stereo delay signal path enhanced by up to six analog-style filters and five distinct effects, allowing users to sculpt and shape their sound with precision. The plugin supports rhythmic pattern creation with up to 16 delay taps that can be individually controlled and modulated, providing detailed control over timing and tone.

This delay plugin excels in flexibility with its drag-and-drop modulation system, enabling users to easily set up complex modulation routings such as ducking, wow and flutter, dynamic diffusion, and other sound manipulation effects. The modulation matrix supports numerous sources including XLFOs, envelope generators, and MIDI, making it simple to add movement and expressiveness to your delays. Additionally, Timeless 3 offers high-quality feedback processing, mid/side support, and creative effects like Drive, Lo-Fi, Diffuse, and Pitch to color the delay tails.

Timeless 3 incorporates a redesigned user interface optimized for smooth workflow and visual feedback with interactive delay and filter displays. It provides advanced features like GPU-accelerated graphics, extensive MIDI Learn capabilities, and Smart Parameter Interpolation for seamless parameter changes. The plugin is available across multiple formats including VST, VST3, Audio Units, AAX Native, and AudioSuite, making it compatible with a wide range of digital audio workstations and hardware control surfaces.
