[sdiy] delaylines

[Dave Krooshof]

Hi list,

When mixing synths with acoustic instruments, a problem arises.
Synths tend to become a unreal layer on top, that does not connect
to the other instruments.
Applying a springreverb helps a bit, adding a room/hall
reverb helps more.
For my bass synth, I'm looking for a delayline with more
output moments, so I can make a virtual "source and reflextions"
system.
I need a few short delays to emulate source-mic distance
and a few longer ones to emulate source-wall reflections.

My questions are:
- What do you do to blend your synth in a mix with
acoustic instruments?
- Are there chips on the market that have a delayline
with 8 or 10 outputs on variable points in the delayline?
