The delay lines aren't really useful looping (as their max time is only something like 8 ms or less). They also take up 8 percent of the processing power. These figures aren't exact as I only toyed with one for a bit. Check out Reaktor (a software synth/sampler) by Native Instruments. Every second of delay takes about 50k of RAM and with the appropriate soundcard you can process stuff in real time through the audio inputs. lots of fun! The other processing on the Nord is very very cool though. Reliable and clean (no occasional clicks or crackles). I'm still not sure whether I will buy the micro modular or invest in its big brother as with the micro you lose polyphony (only 1-4 voices!) and expansion ability, and not to mention all the cool assignable knobs.
