Fixed delay is pretty straight forward using a delay plugin, but that
generally is manually configured.  Analyzing two streams to determine the
delay between them would have to be done external to Ardour, that is not
something you would do during music production.

Delay and adjusting gain up and down are pretty simple, there are probably
a few different ways to do that, the complicated parts are automatically
determining the needed delay, and handling the case where delay changes
for some reason.  That could be disruptive to the audio if you have to
change parameters on the stream which is currently playing.
