I have a huge fascination for delay.
It's something that is irrational.These repetitions of the original signal become something else, they make the origin disappear.
The signal itself becomes longer, leaving a tail, a trace that seams to say "I was here!"...going where?Holiday maybe.
Delay is not a loop.Loop repeats itself like a circle, for ever maybe if needed, making the repetition "automatic".Delay instead is meant to disappear, "...from a distant shore miles from land" Syd Barret sung.That's for me "delay".It goes into the abyss and doesn't return.
A loop returns, according to his timetable, stronger than before.It changes the original signal into something else, like million of mirrors facing each other.
Delay is a glass, glass is transparent, you see through it.
