Fixed, noninterpolating delay line</A>

<P>
Example G01.delay.pd (Figure <A HREF="#fig07.23">7.23</A>) applies a simple delay line to
an input signal. Two new objects are needed:

delay line (and two delay lines may not share the same name). The
second creation argument is the length of the delay line in milliseconds. The
inlet takes an audio signal and writes it continuously into the delay line.

SRC="img821.png"
ALT="\fbox{ \texttt{delread\~}}">:
<A ID="8425"></A>read from (or "tap") a delay line. The first creation argument gives the name
of the delay line (which should agree with the name of the corresponding
<TT>delwrite~</TT> object; this is how Pd knows which <TT>delwrite~</TT> to
associate with the <TT>delread~</TT> object). The
second (optional) creation argument gives the delay time in milliseconds. This
may not be negative and also may not exceed the length of the delay line as
specified to the <TT>delwrite~</TT> object. Incoming numbers (messages) may be
used to change the delay time dynamically. However, this will make a discontinuous
change in the output, which should therefore be muted if the delay time changes.
<P>
The example simply pairs one <TT>delwrite~</TT> and one <TT>delread~</TT> object
to make a simple, noninterpolating delay. The input signal is a looped
recording. The delayed and the non-delayed signal are added to make a
non-recirculating comb filter. At delay times below about 10 milliseconds, the
filtering effect is most prominent, and above that, a discrete echo becomes
audible. There is no muting protection on the delay output, so clicks are
possible when the delay time changes.
