Hi

I'm struggling to make (what would seem) a simple delay with variable 
feedback. But no matter what I try it just won't behave. If someone 
could make a simple example from the following (it's supposed to be 
happening in an always-on output-module instrument), I'll be forever 
grateful (and forever copy/paste'ing the code):

imaxdelay = 5; seconds
kdelay = 1; seconds
kfeedback = .5; 0-1
               ; 0 = no delay in output
               ; 1 = constant feedback, even if a_the_dry_signal stops 

               ; sounding
asignal = a_the_dry_signal
; here should be the code to make the delay happen :-)
out asignal

I'm sorry about the newbie question, I never seemed to be able to wrap 
my head around deltapi and friends.

Thanks, this works.

The most stupid thing is I actually had this, but somehow forgot that 
kdelay is in seconds (not ms) so I was operating out of range compared 
to imaxdelay, and stupid me couldn't figure out why I was always hearing 
the 5 seconds delay that was set by imaxdelay.

This is a realtime orchestra, so unfortunately ksmp=1 is not gonna work. 
However 1 sample delay is not gonna happen in this case. I am, however, 
using variable delays, how would I benefit from having ksmp=1 in this 
regard?

you can ignore my advice then.
