Every frequency gets its own delay time.

The same take, twice - once dry, once through Nyra. Switch between them mid-playback: the playhead never moves, so you hear only what Nyra did.

The fight you've been having with every delay
A normal delay treats your sound as one thing: one time, one feedback, one tail. Nyra splits it into 1,025 frequency bands and lets you draw a different delay for each one - 20 ms under 100 Hz so the low end stays tight, 900 ms above 4 kHz so the air floats forever. One instance, one send, no automation.
You already know the workaround: high-pass the delay send so the echoes don't smear the low end, then duck the return so the top doesn't wash out the vocal. That's one delay fighting one EQ, on every mix.
Nyra removes the fight, because in Nyra the delay time is the curve. Draw it once: the sub stays dry and forward, the mids get a short slap, the highs bloom into a two-second tail.
Nine things you can draw
Every lane is a curve across the frequency axis. Draw it with a brush or place nodes with Bézier bends; snap to semitones and grid, or type an exact Hz value at any node.
Delay
The shape of time. 0–4000 ms per band, free or tempo-synced down to 1/1.
Speed
Per-band playback rate. Each band scrubs its own history: half-speed lows under reversed highs.
Pan
Real per-band stereo. Lows stay centred, highs get thrown wide; the energy actually moves.
Six more lanes work the same way: Feedback, Level, Shimmer, Mod, L/R and Width - each one a curve across the same frequency axis, with generators, transforms, Follow-Spectrum and a shape library on every one of them.
The tail becomes an instrument
Gesture Storyboard
Draw a curve, add a step, draw the next. Up to 16 states, looped in sync with your host, either hard-switched like a step sequencer or morphing into each other. Delay and Speed are captured together; either lane can be held out of the loop and stay live under your hand.
Motion Matrix
Two LFOs and an envelope follower into seven destinations: 21 bipolar cells, each smoothed, with per-source output amounts you can ride live. Modulation that moves with the take instead of against it.
Questions people actually ask before buying
Is this just an EQ on a delay send?
No. An EQ shapes how much of the delay you hear. Nyra shapes when you hear it: each of the 1,025 bands has its own delay time, feedback, level, pan and playback speed. You can build results with it that no combination of EQ and delay can produce - a 20 ms low end under a 2-second top, for example, from a single, phase-coherent process.
Can I try it first?
Yes - Nyra Lite is free, permanent, and it is the same audio engine, not a crippled or noise-injected demo. Download Nyra Lite.
What do I actually own?
A perpetual licence, delivered as an offline key file. No subscription, no account, no server that has to still exist in five years. Free updates through all 0.x and 1.x releases.
Refunds?
14 days, no questions asked. Because Lite exists, you can also just try before you buy.
Two ways to start
Nyra Lite is not a demo - it is the same engine with a smaller control surface. Start free, upgrade when you want the other eight lanes.
