Re: AW: sound mangling devices?

["Kris Hartung" <khartung@cableone.net>]

On a related note of tone mangling devices, I remember lusting over an ADA
delay unit when I was in highschool...it was an analog unit I believe, with
various nobs that you could tweak in real-time. Has anyone ever seen one of
these things around they were a single space. It sure is nice to be able to
tweak a delay time nob without hearing the digital noise nightmare.  I
suppose Frisell is using something of this nature.
