I'm thinking about using teensy audio to mimic the functionality of a 1978 Lexicon Prime Time digital delay. it's a really interesting early digital delay that has the ability to modulate the speed at which it plays the delay buffer, changing the pitch in the process. You can also change the bitrate of the buffer by various increments that will double at each step. When the bitrate/speed of the buffer is at its lowest, the delay is super gnarly and lo-fi. I was thinking about using the granular pitch shift and delay effects to achieve this, but I'm starting to think that I need to write an object that can control the bitrate of the entire audio path so that old feedback is pitch shifted when it's modulated, while new sounds will be at the correct pitch. I would make my dry signal an analog bypass. Here's a demo of the original device. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Pc-dpc_Et8&t=10s They cost an arm and a leg, which is why I'm interested in mimicking its basic functions with teensy. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
