| Assuming 186,000 miles per second (a bit on the optimistic side), you'd
need 186 miles of wire for every millisecond of delay.
Even at 1/2 that speed it's a goodly amount of wire....

| I think I answered my own question. At the speed of light, I would
need 931,412 miles of wire for 5 ms. So, does anybody know of an easy
analog delay? Without buying a DOD pedal?
Thnaks,

| Of course, if you have a buddy in Taiwan that's willing to answer the
phone, you can have an analog delay, albeit with low bandwidth, by
hooking up to the phone. You can have it now and it won't cost but a
few bucks for the first few minutes. Great for studio work. Not so
hot live. Not variable. But ...

| An old 1/4"tape recorder that can monitor the play heads while
recording will play the tape a fraction of a second (dpending on tape
speed) after recording. I've done that, and then play the tape on
another tape recorder 20 feet away, getting about 30 seconds of delay.
Paul Dresher has done that.

| ...or why not, just for the heck of it, go primitive and get long
tubes of different length, somehow, from somewhere and hook them up in
some way...surely a way to get more variance and unpredictability.
If you wanna get really wild, get a hold of a local sewer system ;^)
Would be more of a team effort, though, rather than a Sunday workbench
project.

| A neat technique for bogus flanging:
Run the source signal through an amp. Take two microphones and flip the
phase on one of them. Mix the mics at equal volumes and listen to the
mix on headphones. Now hold the mics in front of the amp's speaker and
vary the relative distance between the each mic and the speaker. Each
foot of differential equals about 1 millisecond (?).
Can't flip the phase of one mic? If you have a truly bogus amp, the
back is open, put one mic back there, and move around the other mic in
front of the amp!

I did this lots back in 1969 and '70, when I was only 4.

Hey, me too, in '72 when I was five! When my dad let me yell into the
microphone and suddenly lots of mes would yell back at me.

My 3 and 5 year old like singing into my harmonizer, especially when
it's set up with regeneration....

My nieces sang into the pitch shift patch of my SPX90
when they were 2 and 4.
