Using delay hold creates a swell taking about 1 second to reach full volume. For times under 1 second this produces lower average loop level due to (I assume) multiple passes through the feedback path which isn't at 100% level yet.
To reproduce: use any delay type, set feedback low/zero (issue reduced if you already have high feedback %), play a chord or send a synth tone & switch on hold. Try with various times like 2000 ms, 1000 ms, 500 ms, 250 ms. The swell will be easier to hear w/ longer times, lower level obvious w/ times below 500 ms.
