''Delay'' is a simple effect similar to an echo. It simply records and repeats whatever you are playing, delayed by a time setting. The "magic" of highly regarded delay units vs. budget units are the extras - these may be additional controls, desirable artifacts left by the delay mechanism (or simulations of them), or the delay's use in combination with other gear, such as other delays or a reverb.
=== Staccato Playing ===
Similar to building chords above, we can use a digital delay to combine current and past playing; however, here we can play melodies that have repeated notes in a regular pattern, having our delays line up between the staccato notes we play, so that it sounds like you are playing twice as fast. See Extreme's He-Man Woman Hater intro, where Nuno does Flight of the Bumblebee.
