oh, for me looping started with the control of FB by foot. I keep 
repeating myself on this list about it, but people who make the 
experience viciate in it, so I keep repeating... without fading :-)
Anyway, I guess you can control parameters of plugins by MIDI, right? 
So the problem would be how to control each one or all plugins at 
once.

this is essencial.

How far can you bring it down to still get 4 tracks? What is your computer?

I will try with Performer. Polar is a very interesting looping aid 
built into it, but it does not have the FeedBack option, so I have to 
find a way...

right, but not just infinite FeedBack, please, and a tap function 
that chops the existing loop reasonable and groupable and and...
