Ableton's stock Delay, tape-style

Automate delay time in Repitch mode.

Set Ableton's Delay to Sync, 4 sixteenths, Repitch mode, feedback 65 %, dry/wet 35 %. Automate the delay-time buttons across a fill — Repitch pitches the buffer as the time changes, like an old tape unit, so the tail dives or lifts. No extra plugins, and it stays on the grid.
