I would then loop the actual audio from the sampler in the echoplex (or jamman or whatever), with any effects, eq, live playing or whatever added. Now that it's looping, I can use the sequencer, sampler, effects, eq, etc for other things. They don't have to stay dedicated to the first loop. Then using a mixer, I can switch between the first loop from the echoplex and any new loops from the other stuff on the fly. With the multiple loops on the echoplex, I can create a bunch of them this way and switch between different ones for different parts of the piece. It's a nice way to do things very quickly while reducing the amount of gear you need. >BTW, Tom Roady is an experienced percussion sample looper - maybe >he has some ideas?
