Which Delay / Echo / Reverb or any effects have a - ‘Wet Only’ option?
I’m really liking this option on Audiothing Outer Space. Which other effects have this option to play around with?

Interesting, what makes this different from just turning the dry/wet all the way to wet?
The difference is that 100% is as wet as wet can be - absolutely soaking - but still includes the original hit/sounds. The original sounds aren’t reduced inversely as the wet knob is dialled up - you just get more or less of the effect as you turn it. With ‘Wet Only’ the original hit/sound is not heard - only the effect tails and echoes.
AudioThing Wires has a delay and there you have a wet switch, see image.
Good question - I can see a dial on EOS2 (reverb) that lets you control the mix. Also "Other Desert Cities" also has mix function. Those apps let you set a completely wet option.
Sorry - I didn't read this carefully before I responded above. When I use Outer Space 2 by AudioThing, the wet switch turns off the dry signal for me. Are you sure you are not hearing the dry signal from another source in your setup? (Your dry signal being the "original hit/sounds" you mentioned). This switch on my Outer Space 2 turns off the original hit/sounds for me. Other apps with a mix dial does the exact same thing.
Any Delay or Reverb that can't be set to "wet only" cannot be used as a send and is thus CompletelyUseless ™️ 😉
I always thought of a dry/wet knob as a cross-fade between the dry and the wet with none of the other part at the beginning and end.
But in that case maybe plugins that have separate dry and wet volumeknobs might be interesting to you, too.
I’m not even sure myself now. I hadn’t really experimented with a fully wet option before until I noticed it on Outer Space - thinking it would be total mush. I had two Pure Acids going - one dry and one wet only with a totally different pattern. It was sounding good. Hold on I’ll just try it out.
OK back again - yes you are quite right, I loaded up a few others and used the iPad mic… fully wet. My original ‘Uh Oh’ was nowhere to be heard - but all the rest were doing their job. I’m sure I’ve had hardware before where it all went crazy fully wet. Ah well you live and learn I suppose. I’ll be having some fun experimenting with this now.
I’ll be exploring this avenue now.
Do you good people use the Fully Wet often? What sort of ideas are you using it for.
Good to hear. The 100% wet function is something I use for setting up a bus and leaving it there for other tracks to send to it for a mix. This saves DSP. But these past few days I've been experimenting with it making Dub music by having a switch or slider in Loopy Pro to make guitar and drum tracks rich and drippy psychedelic on the fly. So much fun!
Use 100% wet on a reverb with a looong decay. Turn everything from a piano, percussion, a fart, whatever into an atmospheric pad sound.
I know what other thread this is going to get posted into.
😅 Is there no specialist forums for that type of thing?
Having a dedicated wet signal knob that's separate from the dry is handy when modulating or playing the effect live. It allows you to keep a consistent dry sound level and then dial in the wet sound. In the end of gives you the same sound control you'd have by putting the effect on a bus, but the effect can be directly on a track. The biggest difference in sound would be noticed when modulating real time, but maybe others see another use or difference?
If you're still interested in effects that have more than just a dry/wet amount then Turnado is a good option. Turnado is also just a generally good option for effects.
