Re: Live Looping signal chain

["L.A. Angulo" <labaloops@yahoo.com>]

i had been doing this with my mo-fx but like Per i am
also not doing it as much live anymore,it would be
interesting for one loop perhaps but it gets old doing
it everytime.In the studio or at home is offcourse
another story.
I am having fun lately however with 2 unsynced
EDPs,theres lots to do!
