You should ask your question like «Is it possible to clear the content of 
[delwrite~] ?» because that's where the sound is kept.

[vd~] and [delread~] are just read-heads that don't keep a copy of the 
sound.

[delwrite~] doesn't seem to have a clear feature. This could be added with 
a little bit of C code, but otherwise, there is a workaround : you 
temporarily set all of your read-heads to a blank portion of the buffer 
instead of where they're supposed to be. Yes it's ugly, and no, it doesn't 
always work. The clear feature would be a better idea.
