Hi David,

I couldn't take a look at your work until now and I'm flattened: This is
great stuff, you wrote there and even interesting if one thinks one
already knows all about the objects from daily use: There's a lot of
hidden stuff to explore in your patches.

I would like to add an oddity with delay, that might cost someone a
lot of time (at least it did cost me): delay always puts out the bang
on the start of a signal block. Attached patch shows what I mean.
Maybe you can add this info, because it explains, why fast envelopes
with line~ and del sometimes produce no output. To my knowledge
there's no trivial solution but the t3-objects in IEMLIB.

ciao,
