Alesis Andromeda A6

Hello folks,

Morten finally convinced me to sign up for this group; I'm a regular 
at Harmony Central's KSS but I've been becoming more and more 
interested in the Ion ever since Summer NAMM 2002, despite the 
naysayers. ;)  Now it seems as if my interest might have been well-
founded after all.

Anyway, Morton keeps us up to date but I keep asking technical 
questions and he says "Come to my yahoo group and ask Ben Ling, he's 
a developer", and I finally had a question so pressing that I 
decided to do just that. :)

So, Ben, Morten says that delay is on your ION wishlist.  The 
musical kind of delay, not the "The Ion has been pushed back to an 
early September release date" kinda delay. ;)  I can personally live 
without reverb, and I know good reverbs are processor intensive, but 
an onboard delay, even global (not per part), is something I would 
really love to have.  Tempo synched (and not), LCR... you know, not 
much, just a simple, functional delay.  Now, it seems to me that for 
delay, you'd have to have access to memory (a megabyte will give you 
just under four seconds of recording time at 24 bits, 44.1kHz, 
stereo) that may or may not be available.  How would you add 
functionality like that via OS update?

I don't want you to give away engineering secrets or anything, but I 
really do wonder how much hope I (or anyone) should have for this 
being added.

Thanks, and hello to everyone again.
