If I understand what you want correctly - you want all edges (rising and falling) of your gate
signal to be delayed by the same amount regardless of when they occur?

If so, a PIC should do the job for you.  with 8K bytes of RAM, you have 65536 bits.  You could
shift the input gate through as many bits/bytes as you need.  A little arithmetic says you
should get good resolution even if you use only one bit per byte (0.00061 seconds per delay
sample).  Use all the bits (more complex program) and get 8 times the resolution.  A PIC with
and ADC can read a pot to set the delay time.
