In the newer 'Rang, the default setting is set for infinite playback, so there is no decay as you stack. Of course, this can be changed in the setup. I find the trim knob to be extremely forgiving and I get very little hiss, except for the middle range of the 3-way switch. I think this is a defect in my unit. I just get by with the first and third position, and as long as I'm not lighting up the clipping LED, my results are great. You might want to see if your older 'Rang can be set for "no decay". I'm sure you already know you can upgrade your older 'Rang to the newer firmware by replacing a few chips.
