Hello Soy Sys, I *guess* the 1024 BBD stage version of the A188 uses
a MN3007 chip. Accord. to it's data sheet the delay time ranges from
5.12ms to 51.2ms. If the A188 can be set for longer times there's a
trade off in massive quality leakage. It results in the "bad" sounds
mentioned by Axel many on this list opted for. The MN3007 is rather
a reverbation and chorus chip than an echo device in it's true sense.
