If the delay could be made with standard SIMM memory modules for the
RAM that would be a real plus to me. You could sell it with a
standard size SIMM or without one so the user could supply their own.
This way the delay time would be only dependent on the size of the
SIMM installed and easily upgradeable. As far as 8-bit vs 16-bit, the
8-bit would be fine for me. Most of my use will be processed later
anyway. Also many forget that 8-bit is really not that bad. All those
old Fairlight recordings from "the day" are 8-bit. Of course this
come from a guy with 3 Mirages!
