I found this you tube suggesting D Scarlatti may have written specifically for violin or even possibly mandolin.
While I have my doubt its not that unreasonable of a notion.
I don't know when...

This is Robert Burns's famous song Ae Fond Kiss, which I was working on for Burns Night recently.

I am over the moon for this Morris A4! It's so beautiful to look at and listen to... the tone is sweet and warm... sparkle-y highs.
Mr. Howard Morris really does build a wonderful Mandolin :)

Looks like a new sound for SJ. But she still has that Fletcher Brock OM out front!

"In a completely different style, here is some tremolo that amazes me from Calace’s Preludio No 1 op. 45 played by Detlef Tewes. The notes for this video were written by Cafe member Robert Margo....
For me, Julien Martineau is in a class of his own. Detlef is also an excellent choice though!

I think it is some sort of delay/filter device. reminds me a little of the Earthquaker Devices Rainbow Machine.

Sounds to me like a bit of both. It could be one of the really funky shifters that has an envelope filter as well.
It sounds like a delay to me. I had an Electro-Harmonix Canyon a few years back that did a similar sort of thing, but I only used it with a Telecaster. I’d like to take a peek at his pedal board.
It sounds like he's running it through a Phase Shifter. Pete Wernick of Hot Rize used one with great effect at times.
The tune Shadows In My Room comes to mind...
