Hi Bakis

> would something like this be doable dieter

I am not Dieter, but let me jump in here: I experimented a lot with tape
based delays and tried also something similar with modified cassette
players.
Result: Forget it as a module. Forget cassettes. I think Dieter does not
want to reinvent the videotape mechanism for audiotapes.
Cartdrige-drives (which might make it a little bit easier) are closed to
unknown and unavailable here in Europe (at least I have never seen them
here).

What might be interesting: an CV-interface for well known tape decks
like a Revox B77 or PR99. These already have Control-Inputs for the
capstan speed, which should be easy to be interfaced with the A100.
