Not quite, though I may have worded it vaguely.  The stack button will
layer on top of your loop.  What I'm talking about is the ability to do
something like the following:
 1. record loop A and set it spinning
 2. stack, play over, generally use loop A however you normally would
 3. hit the 'through mute' button, hit the record button and record
    what we'll call loop B while your loop A is still playing.
 4. finish recording loop B by pressing the record/play button again
    and viola there's your loop B spinning away with loop A having been
    discarded for simplicity's sake (or saved if we're also adding
    multi loop capability)
 5. rinse & repeat & repeat &... :)
