T-Rex Replicator (real tape delay)

[Tune Tone]

how far are we from getting this one cracked. As well as getting parts to build it... ?
just wondering..
have a good year and a merry Christmas !

The T-Rex Replicator

With actual proprietary tape inside the unit, this is one of the more impossible projects for this forum. I can't imagine a way to transpose this circuit and all of the mechanical features to stripboard.

To put Tape Delay in a perspective:
Here is a DIY version of a Tape Delay, using a modified 8-track tape recorder:

As you can see it is mainly mechanics involved...

Here is the schematic of the Roland Space Echo:
(As you can see, it is quite a complicated and huge circuit...)

Here is a cool way of using several tape machines in order to create delay and modulation effects:

I came across this project which uses a tape player/recorder to produce a tape delay effect http://proto-schlock.blogspot.ca/2015/04/echo-matic-diy-tape-delay.html There is also the Sagan delay project that simulates the Roland Space Echo using pt2399s
