This is a pretty tall order, man!
I can't think of any analog delay (aside from tape) that is capable of 2-4 second delays. Until fairly recently, with the advent of ever-cheaper memory, many digital boxes weren't capable of delays this long. Many older budget FX boxes top out at 1.5 or 2 seconds of stereo delay and most can only produce shorter times on multi-tap delays.
Given your price point and your desire for real-time controls, I'd suggest you look at a pair of some cheaper guitar-oriented delays like the Line 6 DL-4 (you could probably find two of these for $350-400) or maybe that Akai. If you're brave, you could try to pickup an Ensoniq DP4+ or Sony DPS-V55 and do some MIDI/sysex programming to control it with something like this:
