Does Logic come equipped with interesting delay plugins?
You'll be surprised about the quality of the FL studio plug ins. They've gone a long way to prove that it is a lot more professional than it used to back when it actually was called fruity loops.
Abstrakt.
Come check out my fothermucking soundcoud:
Something TOTALLY different. Really enjoyed this badboy and the melodies.
FL plugins are a bit plain and basic. I doubt many professional dubstep producers use them.
..and if it was less fiddly to automate them with LFOs and easier to get warm sustained feedback.

Put your delay on a send then add an effects chain too it to make it less plain. A delay is simply the reproduction of an audio signal some time after its received. The delay in the song you posted has effects on top of the delay. Something like tape delay w/ saturation, flutter, ping pong, or drift; all of which btw are features of the vst I posted earlier.

Nice one. Are those effects specific to that particular plugin?

I'd bet my left testicle that some FL using Dubstep producers do use some of the stock plug-ins.

You'll find a lot of tape delay emulators that have saturation, and ping pong is very common. If you want to get really interesting and complex delayed sounds going your best bet is to send your audio to an fx chain that starts with a stock delay on 100% wet, then you can add saturation, compression, or any other effect you want and you're not limited by which fx any specific delay vst has.

I'm not sure if FL or Soundforge has them though. Do you mean having the delay on a send channel?
IMO, the thing about digital delays (in opposed to digital distortion and digital tube emulation) is that they're always perfect by definition. All they do is repeat the original audio source in a defined manner. And so, personally loving complete control (!) over my tunes, I love using Delay Designer which comes stock with Logic, you can make it do anything. Set taps, cutoff, even feedback.
