Re: trade secrets! (was Re: barefoot looping)



I'm a stand up guy as well... I often find I'd like to be waving one
foot over my Fuzz Probe antenna while working a volume pedal with the
other. I DO step on a footswitch with my left foot (Boss FS5U) and
weight it... then work my volume pedal or wah with the other. I'm
considering getting a stool like thing for sitting on briefly when I
need to go "total control freak" mode...
