Towel Over the Speaker as Volume Control ( was Digitech Jamman vs Boss Loopstation)

No, the Loopstation is what it is--and I use mine--but it doesn't make me
more creative!

Actually, I think the 'Stereo Volume control' analogy it spot on... it 
is exactly
what I feel looping without feedback control... my Loops are either off 
or on,
not a good thing for dynamic live looping!
