Version : 1.02

Author : Niall Moody (niallmoody@yahoo.co.uk)

Format(s) : Windows VST

Created with : C++

CPU Usage : 0.01%? (tested on a P4 2.8GHz)

Description :

Reads in a cycle's-worth of the input signal, then (once the whole cycle's been read in) outputs it again, on top of the current output, repeat ad infinitum(?). Works best with long/sustained sounds (e.g. strings, pads etc.), sounds like a weird kind of gentle distortion.
