Good idea. I'll do that.

OK, so this this is some integral number of samples. I check
the effect_presets file for guidance on this one as well.

You've misunderstood me here. I've switched to referring to
the first parameter time-delay-msec. But I feel a little
foolish because I somehow thought it was to be expressed in
milliseconds and my question was how to specifiy msecs, when
msecs is what is actually asked for. So, no problem after
all here I guess.

Ahhh...
So looping *is* enabled, but still requires a time value.

Greatly, yes.
Thanks for taking the time to assist in my rudiments (I may
call upon you again 8^).
