New/Help with EDP

Hi,

I just rejoined this list after an absence of several months. The 
reason I rejoined? I finally got an EDP. That's the good news. Now 
the bad...

I have a couple newbie questions, basically. I'm having some 
difficulties getting things working the way I'd like.  I was 
wondering if any kind soul would be willing to help me out privately 
with a couple of these dilemmas. I don't really want to clutter up 
list space with all the details, but here are the sorts of issues I'm 
confronting:

1) I've got a question or two about where to place the EDP in my rig. 
I want to be able to play a clean loop (or a loop using 'x', 'y' and 
'z' fx...or whatever) and then play over it using *different* fxs. 
Simple Ex: Record a clean chord progression, loop it, and then play 
over it using a patch from my TC G-Force and/or distortion pedals. So 
far I'm not running my fx properly to be able to do so. Whatever fxs 
I add are *also* being added to the original loop.

2) Running the EDP with two amps, one of which has an fx loop, and 
one of which doesn't. This, too, is causing me a headache. Do I get 
an A/B switch for my amps (I prob. need one anyway)? Do I run the EDP 
through my Boogie's fx loop? Should I send the loop to one amp only? 
Or both? If so, how? And so on.

As I said, I need to get these basic issues solved, so I can really 
get up and running and start getting the sounds I want. So if anyone 
else has encountered--and solved--similar problems, I'd greatly 
apprecate some help. I know there's a number of FAQs at 
loopersdelight.com. A quick glance didn't turn up exactly what I was 
looking for, but maybe my answers are there somehwere?

Many thanks,

Jeff
