Re: Line 6 M13

["Jeff Duke" <jeff_d@embarqmail.com>]

Sjaak, that was beautiful man! I really enjoyed that.

Am I too understand that there is any variable feedback control with the 
M9/13?

I know that the manual states that the old material "gradually fades with 
the overdubbing of new" but I figured that was more of a safety valve type 
thing to keep it from overloading with endless overdubs.

Sjaak said: "overdub set on 0".... so there is an overdub control?
Bill said:  "The variable feedback does seem to be somewhat slow to react"

I am seriously considering an M9 to replace my aging DL4. I have hardly 
ever 
used the looper funtion in it mostly because of the lack of feedback. I 
would get the M9 just for the effects section anyway but a more functional 
looper would be a plus!
