What it does do is provide a 1.5s delay with a feature that
is no doubt unintentional. 
Works like this:
just an example
If you make a loop at 1.5s and
then shorten the delay time to 0.1 seconds
the 1.4s of audio in the rest of the loop is stored...
..an will still be there if you return the delay
time to 1.5s.

That's because they didn't bother, or didn't have
the processor power to kuill the artefacts when changing the
delay time.
For certain LDer's that might be a glitchy GAS feature.

Also it has a freeze button (unhelpfully called Sound on Sound)
