DELAY -- delay an input signal with feedback
in RTcmix/insts/std

quick syntax:
DELAY(outsk, insk, indur, AMP, DELAYTIME, FEEDBACK, ringdowndur[, inputchan, PAN]) 


   p0 = output start time (seconds)
   p1 = input start time (seconds)
   p2 = input duration (seconds)
   p3 = amplitude multiplier (relative multiplier of input signal)
   p4 = delay time (seconds)
   p5 = delay feedback (regeneration multiplier, 0-1)
   p6 = ring-down duration (seconds)
   p7 = input channel [optional, default is 0]
   p8 = pan (0-1 stereo; 0.5 is middle) [optional; default is 0]

   p3 (amplitude), p4 (delay time), p5 (feedback) and p8 (pan) can receive
   dynamic updates from a table or real-time control source.


DELAY is a simple, regenerating delay instrument. It has parameters for regeneration (amount of feedback) and for ring-down time, so that the delay decays naturally. The original and delayed signals are mixed in mono, but will be placed in a stereo field at a point determined by the optional pan parameter (p8).



Usage Notes

The point of the ring-down duration parameter is to let you control how long the delay will sound after the input has stopped. Too short a time, and the sound may be cut off prematurely.

DELAY can produce mono or stereo output.



Sample Scores

very basic: 

   rtsetparams(44100, 1)
   load("DELAY")

   rtinput("somesound.aif")

   DELAY(0, 0, 7, 0.7, .14, 0.7, 3.5)
   DELAY(3.5, 0, 7, 0.9, 1.4, 0.3, 5)


more advanced: 
   rtsetparams(44100, 2, 512)
   load("DELAY")

   rtinput("AUDIO")

   ampenv = maketable("line", 1000, 0,0, 1,1, 90,1, 100,1)
   DELAY(0, 0, 14, 0.7*ampenv, .078, 0.8, 3.5, 0, 0.1)

   ampenv = maketable("line", 1000, 0,0, 50,1, 90,1, 100,0)
   panner = makeLFO("sine", 0.5, 0, 1)
   DELAY(7, 0, 10, 1*ampenv, .415, 0.5, 3, 0, panner)
