Ok, that's me estimating wrong, then.

Yes, it's a annoying property of the build-in reverbs. the magnitude of this
effect varies wildly with the frequency of the material.

Yes, it's nice, I'm currently running some tests on it. Of course this is
proper behaviour; the extended class *should* also be a "Delay" (as well as
a UGen) and so the chuck operator should automatically be overloaded to deal
with this. At least that's what I feel the docs imply. In the past, however,
this didn't work and there has been some discussion on that. You could
extend a UGen, but the result wouldn't connect to the UGen graph (so that
was quite useless). The odd thing is that I can't remember this working in
1.2.1.3 before. I have a gut feeling there was a update because of the
issues with OSX Lion and some other changes also got pushed in, but the
version number wasn't incremented and no changes were listed in the VERSIONS
file... but that's pure speculation.


It'd be nice to get some official word on this. In the meantime; very, very
nice find you made here!


Yours,
Kas.
