Control size of delay/write_sdram from midi CC, CV, or preset?

#1

I'm new to the whole synth thing in general, but loving it... that said, I'm curious to know if I can control the delay/write time while live using CC, CV, or perhaps a number of presets? Thanks in advance for any help moving fwd.

theoretically - you can't modulate buffer size of the delay line (=memory used, max delay time), but you can modulate the amount that is used e.g. you could have a delay line that is max 5 seconds, then modulate the actual delay between 0-5 seconds.
the factory objects don't allow this, (except perhaps stomps/delay via a mod source?) , but community objects do.. (and if you can code, it'd be easy to modify the factory objects)

Thanks @thetechnobear... I'll give it a try today.

#4

You can modulate the delay time by patching factory objects, as seen in Library/factory/tutorials/21_modulated_delay

Or did I misunderstand something?

your right - this is exactly whats needed :slight_smile:
(I was confusing it will table/read interp where the input its an absolute position - but, of course, with the delay variant its time/size.)
