Before the new version 2 software there was a volume ramp at the loop boundaries to avoid any pops and clicks, now if you change the stacking behavior you can overdub a long held note over the loop boundary without hearing a volume ramp down/up. It works great for me because I'm bowing a string instrument and I think that would be the way to go with an ebow as well.

I'm also interested to learn about the "ambient" possibilities of the boomerang III. from Todd Matthews: "Set the optional stacking behavior so you can record seamless loops w/o volume ramps at the loop boundaries" Can someone explain this a bit further? What is this special behavior? I would like to record seamless drones using an Ebow, is this really a seamless looping?

Hi Mike, good to have you here for a bit!
Ambient looping guitarist here. We haven't corresponded since I upgraded my original Boomerang many moons ago.
Sjaaks questions are pretty much mine also. I am looking forward to your report eagerly!

Hi Mike, I'm an ambient looper and was quite happy when I heard about the version 2 freestyle feature. I would like to know how feedback/decay exactly works on the Rang III. From what I understand from the manual and from Todd Matthews here on LD, is that you have a decay knob to control feedback. My question: does decay work for each track individually or does it only work in overdub/stack mode on the current track? Example: is it possible to set decay to 70% with track 1 in play mode causing a slow fade out of the track without adding new audio to the loop itself? Or use track 2 to create a new loop at the same time with decay on 50% for example?
Thanks!
