			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I got a mail the other day from someone who was looking to duplicate the kind of long, fed-back tape delays that Pauline Oliveros used in &#8220;II of IV&#8221;. I<br />
initially suggested a Max/MSP program, or perhaps Supercollider, but, as he put it, &#8220;I use a computer as something to write on&#8221;, and I can understand that.</p>
<p>So, has anyone got a good hardware-based suggestion? Apparently good two-track reel-to-reel tape recorders are hard to come by nowadays, so what he&#8217;d be looking for is a setup which mimicks the following:</p>
<ol>
<li>recorder 1 gets input on channel 1; this is monitored and fed back to channel 2 (resulting in a short delay determined by the distance between record and playback heads)</li>
<li>the tape runs across a gap (TBD by the performer) to a second deck</li>
<li>Channel 1 on this machine is fed back to channel one on the first machine</li>
<li>both channels on machine 2 are monitored and amplified to produce what the audience hears</li>
</ol>
<p>So I think we&#8217;re looking at a long-interval multitap delay, with some clever wiring to feed back parts of the delayed signal. I&#8217;ve suggested a couple of<br />
software solutions, but Real Hardware seems to be indicated. Any takers out there?</p>
