Make sure you are using the correct type of pedal. It should be a volume pedal intended for line level signals, where the pot is around 20kOhm. If you are using a volume pedal intended for guitar the resistance will be too high, around 250kOhm. Most of the range of the pedal will not be recognized. So you may have to move through a lot of the pedal range before you reach the point where the EDP recognizes it. See the Echoplex pedal tutorial for a lot more details: http://www.loopers-delight.com/tools/echoplex/echopedals.html Also, make sure you understand what feedback is and how it works. You won't hear the result of a feedback change until the next repetition of the loop. However, if you are using LoopIV some of the interface modes provide interesting variations on this. You may want to explore those after you get the idea of basic feedback control. >I also notice that if I swoop the pedal a couple of times to get >the feedback change noticed, there is also a accompanying swoop in the >volume leve of the loop I'm recording. Has anyone else had this >happen? If so, how did you deal with it? As Bill explained, Feedback is a dynamic control. It is always affecting the level fed back into the loop. Active motions you make on feedback will be heard in the next repetitions of the loop. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
