I would really love to see a tape delay with four heads instead of just two to mimic the Roland RE 501 Chorus Echo unit used extensively by guitarists Alex Lifeson of Rush and Paul Reynolds of A Flock of Seagulls among others. Some people have suggested using the quad tape delay but that is not the same thing since the heads are in series one affecting the next which affects the next etc, not the same thing at all as taps. Of course you don't always want to manipulate all four heads or even three but you can get some very cool and very usable sounds using all four and even three heads with slight changes. Been trying two blocks of tape delay in series but doesn't seem to cut it.
