In another conversation last week I was offered a feedback looper by
@AxeWieldingBastard and today it arrived.
I tried making a simple passive version a couple of years ago but it wasn't very good, so I had better hopes of this. (not my picture)
I tried it earlier and thought it did quite well - the option of using it as a blend pedal as well as the feedback option meant I could replace my home made blend pedal with something that could add the feedback too, so that was nice
This first clip is what it mostly does using the feedback blend knob - a continuous Miku drone that could be made occasionally to change smoothly from one note to another using the volume control on my guitar, as long as the two notes aren't too far apart.
I've switched on a pedal or two to show what having the continuous note can be used for

I was expecting it to react the same way as it would if I turned the Feedback knob back and forth, but perhaps it isn't quite set up correctly (there are dip switches inside for getting different pedals to work but I haven't touched them).
What I get with the feedback up full and a short note played is this (again with added pedals after a bit)

Hopefully
@Sporky ; approves !
