Im not sure about the toy piano ! Some people swap that for the Easter egg accoustic piano [using wire cutters].
Yep the delay is very well implemented, I like that it doesnt jump when you turn the knob but slews and retains the pitch shifted audio.

Theres a "why I love..." on battery operated equipment which I didnt particularly agree with when I read it but now I have a few "pocket size" devices I can appreciate that its a very different way to play. And it is play, not a work-flow.

I still dont know what Spectral Component Modelling is, other than inscrutable.
Theres probably a sine wave in there somewhere. Maybe even two.

Still mourning the loss of my 'Jedi Poster" status :)

People often mistake me for a grown-up because of my age.

The delay is fantastic, but it's incremental, not a problem though.
Toy piano is great when pitched down, add feedback delay for instant drone textures.
