Oddly enough, no.  I was sure you could but it's not available in the
patchbay.

Okay, I've thought about this for a while now, and think I might have a
solution (albeit a complicated one).  Here goes.  For all the preset
layers you want to change the timing on, do the following:

1 - Edit the Volume Envelope to be:
              Rate  Level
    Attack1:  0     1%
    Attack2:  0     0%
    Decay1:   X     100%  (X would be the "attack" time you wanted)
    (you can leave the rest alone)

2 - In the patchbay, hook up the following cord:
    VolEnv+ -> SRetrig  +001

Then, by changing the Amp Attack knob (Knob E), you should be able to
control that preset's delay.  I'm not sure this will work (haven't
tried it) but the concept is as follows:  Play the sound when
triggered, but keep the sound quiet until the desired time (by changing
the rate of the attack times) with the volume envelope.  Then, after
that time has passed, bring the volume envelope back up and also use it
to retrigger the sound (so that it starts from the beginning).

Let me know how it goes...
