Yep. "Dub mix" is just what we usually call "feedback" and here you
may assign an expression pedal to it. Threshold recording is something
I must confess never having used although all my loopers support it. I
prefer a direct kick pad for the Record function.

One disappointment is the implementation of the Record function. I
would much rather have it "EDP style", i.e. instantly deleting the
loop and starting over recording a new loop. It's cool with me if the
"Boss style", going "overdub" on the second press, only is active IF
IN RECORD MODE because then a third press of Record could be used to
instantly delete the loop and start recording a new loop. I could not
make out if this is the case from the way the manual is written.
Probably not. But one can suggest that. I've heard that the developer
accepts good suggestions to implement in system upgrades. Would be
cool if the looper block could optionally be used to set a new tempo
(also "EDP style"). For now you need to dedicate one pedalboard pad
for a tap tempo function and in order to use the looper effectively
you have to already  be playing with a loud and clear tempo function
audible from some other effect block.
