The Comeback Kid Black Friday deal takes 57% off Baby Audio's delay plugin for Mac and PC, which brings it to $29 until Dec 9, 2026.
Comeback Kid is a hands-on delay with an analogue flavour. Baby Audio says they wanted a warmer, more inspiring delay, one that lets you build your own delay sounds from a set of onboard flavouring tools.
The maker says the workflow stays fast, even though each knob has more going on under the hood than it shows.
You set the timing first. BPM-synced modes cover straight, dotted and triplet values, and free mode runs from 0.01 ms to 2500 ms. There is also a Ping-Pong option.
The character section then shapes the repeats. Baby Audio lists these tools:
For width and placement, Wider varies the L/R delay times and Richer varies the L/R pitch. Pan places the delays in the stereo image, and Mono collapses them.
Ducker lowers the delays while the dry signal plays, which keeps the repeats out of the way of a vocal or lead line. Destiny adds unpredictability, so the repeats feel less robotic.
The plugin ships with 61 presets made by friends of Baby Audio. Two of the names the maker lists are Mick Schultz, a Grammy-nominated producer who has worked with Rihanna and Kelly Clarkson, and Anthony Saffery, who has worked with Portugal. The Man and Dirty Vegas.
The maker says there are no sub-menus or hidden features, so every control sits on the front panel. Its pitch is that one plugin can give you a tape delay on a lead synth, a modern slap on vocals and a crunchy lo-fi echo on guitars, or a blend of all three.
On Mac, the plugin needs Mac OS X 10.7 or later, 64-bit only, and runs natively on Intel and M1 Apple Silicon. Formats are AU, VST, VST3 and AAX.
On Windows, you need Windows 7 or later, 32 or 64-bit, with VST, VST3 and AAX formats.
Baby Audio lists Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, Nuendo, Reaper and Reason as compatible, plus other major DAWs. Logic Pro is listed for Mac only.
An internet connection is required to authorise the software. If you access it through a Rent to Own plan or the Beatport Studio membership, it installs and runs through the Beatport Access portal, and that route needs an internet connection every 30 days to validate your license.
Yes. The Comeback Kid Black Friday deal takes 57% off Baby Audio's delay plugin, bringing it to $29. The deal ends Dec 9, 2026.
Comeback Kid includes 61 presets made by friends of Baby Audio, among them Mick Schultz and Anthony Saffery. The plugin itself packs BPM-synced and free delay modes, a Ping-Pong option and a row of character tools such as Tape, Cheap, Swirl and Ducker.
Mac gets AU, VST, VST3 and AAX. Windows gets VST, VST3 and AAX. Baby Audio lists Ableton Live, Pro Tools, FL Studio, Cubase, Nuendo, Reaper and Reason, plus Logic Pro on Mac, and says other major DAWs work too.
You can lock the delay to tempo with straight, dotted or triplet BPM-synced modes. Free mode covers 0.01 ms to 2500 ms, so you can dial in anything from a tight slap to long repeats. A Ping-Pong option is also on board.
