Ok, let's see where this will lead us...let's say you got a DL4 with a
sweep
delay, or a laptop with OhmBoyz. There is a setting on the depth/feedback
(vs. resonance/feedback) knobs where the effect will do nothing on its own,
just react to your guitar (or whatever). Then there is a setting where the
effect will start to generate huge washes of noise all by itself. And there
is the range in between where by the tick of a knob it will turn from a
"tame" effect into something which will start to self-oscillate by just a
tiny increase in brownian motion. And you're telling me this tick of the
knob removes the "non-" from "non-instrument"?
