Delay (audio effect)

Delay is like making a copy of a sound and then playing it back a little bit later. It's like when you say "echo" in a big, empty room and you hear your own voice come back to you. With delay, you can make the sound repeat over and over again, getting quieter each time. It's like playing a game of "telephone" with yourself. You can also change how long the delay is, so it sounds like the echo is bouncing off different walls in the room. This can make music sound really cool and trippy!
