I describe how real quantum annealers may be used to perform local (in state space) searches around specified states. rather than the global searches traditionally implemented in the quantum annealing algorithm. The quantum annealing algorithm is an analogue of simulated annealing. a classical numerical technique which is now obsolete. https://www.roneverhart.com/Echo-Fix-EF-P2-Spring-Reverb-Pedal-p32083/
