Doepfer

For those who's grain is gone against with the idea of a digitally 
based delay:  Keep an open mind!

I mean this with the greatest respect - please don't read any 
email anger here, there is none.  My whole point being however 
for some things, a digital heart is far superior for both sonic and 
control possibilities - reverb, delay and flanging among them. 
Not to mention envelope generators and other complex CV 
generators.  

If anyone doubts the quality of, let's say, a digital reverb - have  
listen to TC Electronics' 6000 - it's utterly amazing.  Of course, it's 
$12,000 USD for a single unit!

But there are other far less expensive alternatives for 
incorporating micro p's and DSPs (OK, i said it) in analog 
applicaitons.

Imagine a polyphonic oscillator which would respond to both 
MIDI AND analog VC.  Or a 5.1 panner, or a trigger/voltage  to 
midi converter which would allow not only full control of any midi 
instrument, but would enable a user to record events on a midi 
sequencer such as Cubase.  WIth digital, the possibilities are 
endless!

so the only other thing I can think of off the top of my head would 
be a tape loop!?
