The diversity of techniques and interests is part of what makes this forum so compelling. When you guys were talking about a "long time" w/r/t delays, I figured you were talking about like three seconds. I thought, "there's no way the delay degrades that fast...!"
Yes if you use really long delays like 3 seconds or more and set feedback 100% repeat then you will eventually hear them degrading and get duller and softer. Another way you hear this is when using a hold delay. You want it to hold infinitely but it doesn't.
I have the feeling that it is not a digital artifact but that it is baked in the algo somehow. But I am not sure and don't know the technical stuff behind it.
