Why not separate the problems? You can create your delay loop using
whichever environment you feel most comfortable with and then use it as
an insert in Nama. Just put a jack input and output at each end of your
programme/patch and then, on the track you want processed in Nama do:

Your track will now be processed in real-time (or you can use the
caching mechanism if latency is a problem) and you can even mix how much
of the processed signal is mixed in with the set_wetness command.

This way, you can tweak the specialised effect however you like and
still work in a DAW environment.

(P.S. I'm sure you could emulate an effect such as what you would like
to achieve using nothing but ecasound/LADSPA, but it would probably be long
and tedious, as it's not really meant to that end: you're probably much
better off using SC/Csound/PD/etc. which are designed to do these
things.)

Cheers,
S.M.
