Re: D-Two Looper Settings



     Hans, thanks very much for posting this. I've been interested in the 
D2 
ever since it was announced, but have not had a chance to try it out (No 
one 
carries it locally). Regarding CC's and Feedback, I am wondering if 
feedback 
can be assigned to a CV pedal and swept without glitches in the audio. How 
about delay time? Can the D2 change delay time without changing pitch (via 
CV 
pedal)? 
     Thanks, Marc
