The AFXII adds improvements to the Delay block: a two-band parametric EQ for the wet signal with low-cut and high-cut with adjustable slopes for the cut filters. The EQ stuff is on a separate GUI page with a graphical display. [http://forum.fractalaudio.com/showthread.php?t=35997&p=491040&viewfull=1#post491040 Source]

Delay blocks now have a master feedback that goes to 200% for oscillating delay effects. [http://forum.fractalaudio.com/axe-fx-ii/35997-axe-fx-ii-technical-questions-thread-45.html#post492139 Source]

Matman: "Axe-Fx II leaves the Ultra in the dust for delay flexibility. ALL your sounds are in here. Bit reduction. 4-band parametric EQ in the loop Hi and Low Cut... 12/24/48 db slope... Q control. 2 mid bands with selectable Q, gain, freq. HOLD switch. Master feedback goes over 100%. 60+ different tempo settings. Better TIME parameter resolution. Plus all the original flexibility of the Ultra/Standard." [http://forum.fractalaudio.com/axe-fx-ii/36472-quality-delays-axefx-ii-3.html#post498573 Source]

To add an effect to the delay trails only, not the direct tone, place the delay in a parallel row and add the effect after it

The Axe-Fx has two different types of Delay blocks. The regular Delay is a basic delay with enhancements. The second is a complex Multi-Delay (separate How-to). The regular Delay has 5 modes:

▪ “Stereo”: independent left and right delay times and feedback
 
−
▪ “Ping-Pong”: criss-crosses the signal so that the echoes ping-pong left and right
 
−
▪ “Dual”: allows full control over the delay block providing controls for all parameters
 
−
▪ "Reverse”: mono reverse playback
 
−
The Ultra's Delay block has an additional mode: Looper (separate How-to).
 
−
▪ The Delay provides a low-cut and high-cut filter to simulate old analog delays. Use the Filter Slope parameter to increase the speed of the roll-offs
 
−
▪ There are also two delay time modulators for modulated delay trails (there’s no dedicated modulated delay mode). Alternatively, place the delay in a parallel path (mix at 100% of course) and add a chorus or flanger behind it to modulate the trails

▪ Delay trails can be carried over to the next preset. Read the topic about Spillover
