I have several delays that will do something like
this, an old Ibanez DD, a Digitech Digidelay, even my Boss DD 20 but not quite
what your thinking perhaps. My Korg AX 3000G has a "Freeze" delay when you step
on the contol pedal it very nicely repeats whatever you had been playing.
Unfortunately when this is engagd no direct sound will be output so you can't
play over it! The Korg also has a "hold" delay but when you hold the sound it
continues to input the direct sound into the held mix until it just overloads.
It seems the Lexicon Vortex could do somthing like this very well but it's been
awhile.

Just today i heard the Electro Harmonix "cathedral" reverb and
it has a very cool hold function..

I
feel it would be useful to have a "freeze" effect that, while a footswitch was
held down, would seamlessly loop the previous n milliseconds of sound (with n
probably between 150 and 400 or so). This is perhaps for a solo jazz guitar
context, but there certainly are other applications. So if i had a note that i
was playing that I wanted to sustain while I drop in say, a couple of filler
chords, i could hit the button and hold it down to do this (and, obviously,
the chords would *not* be input to the freeze function). I don't know what
you'd call this - "fingerless infinite sustain"? Anyway, maybe this is doable
with one of the reverbs I have, or maybe there's some kind of dedicated
effect. any ideas?
Thanks, Warren
