delaying samples

if delay would already contain a vectordelay of one sample, it would require 10 times
more CPU as it does now - but the vectordelay is not needed when you do not build
a feedback loop.

when you do a feedback loop and you want to have a delay of 7 samples, you would
do it like this:

1.
make a patcher like that:

[in~ 1]
[send~ #0_bubu]
[receive~ #0_bubu]
[out~ 1]

2.
save it do disk and call it in your main patcher using a poly~, and set the vectorsize to 1 sample:

[poly~ mypatcher 1 vs 1]

3.
insert [poly~ mypatcher 1 vs 1] into your feedback loop.
(it does not do anything except that it is required to make a feedback loop work.)

4.
now you can/have to substract 1 sample from the delay time of [delay~]:
for a delay of 1 sample, use [delay~ 0], for a delay of 7 samples, use [delay~ 6].
of course, now the "first" delay is wrong - so you have to make one extra delay~
object in parallel, which does not go to the feedback, i.e. you make one delay
for the first delay, and another one with 1 sample less, for the looped ones.

btw, a feedback loop of only sample delay will give you a nice sqare wave of 22 Khz - noone
needs that. 2 or 4 samples should be just fine for any kind of audio effects, or in other words:

loop ----- first delay

[delay~ 0] ----- [delay~ 5]

[poly~ mypatcher 1 vs 4]
