... "For most looping operations, feedback is set to 100% ... "
"While you're overdubbing or multiplying, the feedback level is scaled
back to about 95% to prevent overloading the Echoplex with the combination
of the old signal and the new."
Maybe I am missunderstanding this but ...
I recorded a loop using the overdub method (with Feedback set to 100%
using a midi pedal), turning overdub off after creating the loop and the
loop after a short while began to gradually fade to almost nothing. When
creating the loop by ending it with record instead of overdub, the loop
played indefinitely with no reduction in sound level. With this test, I
found it pretty convincing that using overdub, it is not possible to keep
feedback set to 100% and prevent the loop from fading. If I am missing
something here, please help me understand the right way.
Thanks,
Steve
