A stack of reversed echoes crescendos into your sound and stops dead where it lands.

"Slingshot really takes what PreVerb does to the next level but with DELAY! Both are incredible, but this one adds a whole lot of movement to the intro of your sample!"
"Irreplaceable unique plugin"
"Just like preverb, does exactly what it should do. Makes the effect very easy to apply and saves a lot of time. Also, allows you to experiment much easier. Great price as a bundle with preverb. Recommended. :)"
"Slingshot sits in every session I create now. A truly unique effect the plugin industry has been sleeping on"

Slingshot vs. the alternatives
Reverse delay has fewer options than reverse reverb, and they range from free utilities to full inserts. Here is how Slingshot compares with doing it by hand and with the other plugins people ask about.
Slingshot
$49A real-time insert. Stacked, tempo-synced reversed echoes build into your sound live, and Capture prints them to a WAV.
VST3, AU · Mac + Windows
Pick it when: You want layered reverse echoes that stay in sync when the tempo changes.
By hand
FreeReverse the audio, add the delay, print it, reverse it again, then nudge it onto the grid.
Any DAW
Pick it when: One reversed echo, once.
Kilohearts Reverser

Prices are list prices checked in October 2026; sales come and go. GRevDly is a VST2 plugin, so check that your DAW still loads VST2.
Questions,answered.
Slingshot
How is Slingshot different from Preverb?
Preverb builds a reverse reverb: one smeared wash that swells in. Slingshot builds a reverse delay: separate reversed echoes that stack and crescendo, with feedback and six delay characters. Same family, different tool. Wash versus rhythm.
Isn't this just a reversed delay I could make myself?
Reversing a printed tail gives you one frozen sound. Slingshot generates the reversed echoes live from your audio, with feedback, six characters, pitch and formant and a draggable lead-in curve, all tempo-aware and editable while it plays. A delay answers a sound after it happens. This one builds before it.
What comes with it?
Slingshot for Mac and Windows and 73 factory presets, with no key to paste. Updates are free.
Compatibility
Does it work in FL Studio, Logic and Ableton?
Yes, and in every other major VST3 or AU host. FL Studio and Live load the VST3; Logic and GarageBand load the AU.
Does it run natively on Apple silicon?
Yes. No Rosetta needed.
Can I use one purchase on a Mac and a PC?
Yes. One purchase covers both, and there's no key to activate on either.
Does it work offline?
Yes. There's no license key to check, no account and no server check, so it needs no internet.
Does it work in Pro Tools?
Not natively. Pro Tools only loads AAX. A VST3 wrapper like Blue Cat's PatchWork works, but buy knowing that.
Buying
Is there a free demo?
No, and nothing is locked: what you buy is the full plugin. Every purchase has a 14-day money-back guarantee instead: use Slingshot on your own sessions, and if it doesn't earn a place in your chain, email support@lowendcandy.com within 14 days for a full refund.
What happens after I buy?
You get the download straight away. Install it, rescan plugins in your DAW and play: there's no key to paste and nothing to activate.
Slingshot alone, or the pair?
Slingshot alone if you only need the reverse-delay swell. The pair if you want Preverb's reverse reverb for the build as well: both plugins for $70.
