not funny at all :-)
Its the biggest problem I have when playing with Giba: Even without 
monitors, my guitar leaks a little into his mikes, so when I stop my 
loop to build a new one onto his ongoing percussion groove, it still 
goes on in his loop and I am not really free to do something totally 
different.
When will I have time to care for "electric percussion" instruments...?
