I will contact the Looperlative people for more specific questions. It's going to be a while before I'm ready to buy, but it's definitely on the big list. Many thanks, continued success - -Neil Thanks, Steve!

Feedback works the same on a loop as on a delay - the audio gradually fades, but with the new material coming in at 100%, so you get that overlapping sound. The speed control is continuous, so great for mad stuffs, harder for beat synced stuff! Greg - the FX loop means that the preamp is after the input stage on the G2 but before the FX. If I put it in first, it would hit the front end of the Lexicon too hard and clip it. Having it where it is just gives the sound some extra body... I'll show you next time I see you :) Neil, sorry for taking so long to reply!

Just getting to grips with signal chains and FX etc.. so why do you /anyone prefer the pre-amp in the FX loop rather than going straight in through it?

You've answered about all of my questions, tank ya vddy mush. But 2 interesting (to me, anyway) things remain, both parameters controlled by expression pedals. 1)EV5 - for loop feedback? interesting. Seems different then how I think of loopers working; I've always known them to be like an endless delay with the feedback set on 1. What exactly happens to the audio in this situation? 2) EV5 for Track Speed...???? Wow, this sounds like a mess of fun if ever there was one. Is it in time increments (8ths, quarters, etc), continuosly variable or either? Man, what can I sell to get me one of those things? Seriously, these are the things we need to know! Thanks for the "look inside" (signal routing info appreciated as well). Good luck here, hope the Philly date works out. BTW, working on a video series, as per your (and other's) suggestions. Best, - NAIL Hey Steve – geeky goodness indeed!
