That's exactly why I don't like "adding effects" but rather "playing  
with effects". I always put effects before the loopers, so eventual  
effect sound will be part of the foundation of the building I'm  
construction (fancy wording for "looping" ;-) as opposed to being  
paper wrappings on the outer walls. Less is more fun ;-)
