Not for the faint of heart! This is a dirty, dirty delay. I used the Roland RE-201 (the Space Echo) as my conceptual starting point, but added a few more modern features.

There is also a polytap feature which allows you to set the two delays to a polyrhythm via simple tap tempo. Featured in the June 2007 issue of Remix Magazine.
