Sounds like Paul Drescher. There was an article on him in Guitar Player in the late 80's or early 90's which showed his tape delay system you're describing.

Question: does anyone remember/know of a looper/composer type who's name I believe was Paul Dresser or something like that from the early 80s? I saw him at the Walker Art Center and I recall being transfixed. I'd like to get some of his music. I believe he was from California and something makes me think it was the San Fransisco area. He had a reel-to-reel with the arms extended several feet in each direction. He also had what looked to be a set of pedals off a large church organ that he'd hacked into his reel-to-reel to control record on/off and track on/off. He did pieces with a guitar and others with a simple casio keyboard. Finally, he played bare foot, I think to better work the organ pedals. Thanks in advance for any info.
