Variable delay opcodes with high quality interpolation.

</div>
<div class="refsect1" title="Initialization">
<a id="id3329678"></a>
<h2>Initialization</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>imd</em></span> -- max. delay time (seconds)
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>iws</em></span> -- interpolation window size (see below)
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>ist</em></span> (optional) -- skip initialization if not zero
</p>
</div>
<div class="refsect1" title="Performance">
<a id="id3329707"></a>
<h2>Performance</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>aout</em></span> -- output audio signal
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>ain</em></span> -- input audio signal
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>adl</em></span> -- delay time in seconds
</p>
<p>
These opcodes use high quality (and slow) interpolation, that is much more accurate than the currently available linear and cubic interpolation. The <span class="emphasis"><em>iws</em></span> parameter sets the number of input samples used for calculating one output sample (allowed values are any integer multiply of 4 in the range 4 - 1024); higher values mean better quality and slower speed.
</p>
<p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>vdelayxw</em></span> opcodes change the position of the write tap in the delay line (unlike all other delay ugens that move the read tap), and are most useful for implementing Doppler effects where the position of the listener is fixed, and the sound source is moving.
