I missed the "time compression / expansion" ...

The raphs look like unequal (and voltage controllable)
gains for signals of positive and negative polarity
with respect to ground.

That could be done quite easily, anyone with a big
modular probably has all the circuits they need right now...

Still bet it sounds like s**t
