Yes, that's an interesting issue! Wouldn't be much of a problem for me
I guess, since my dream for a multi output guitar would be to run each
string into its own looper. I bend pretty far on the strat so some
notes would gliss up and disappear form the loop only to appear
magically in a different loop somewhere else, later in the music. Not
worse overhearing leakage than I have with stage monitors when looping
flute. Actually I think audio leakage in looping can sound
interesting. Not if it happens all the time though - but if used
intentionally. I mean, if not bending you won't have it. As with a mic
on stage - if not opening your mute pedal you won't have the leakage
either.
