"hold" drone note/ infinite reverb?

[Sorceror777@aol.com]

Would an infinite reverb achieve the "tinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnmmmnnnnnnnnng" 
sound better than trying to get force a looper not to do "ting ting ting 
ting 
ting ting ting ting, etc"?
Whats a good (sound/clarity wise) footswitch-controllable rackmount 
dedicated 
reverb unit that can perform this function for no more than $500?

Or am i better off getting a lo-fi delay unit like the old ibanez dm2000 
that 
can sample a note and taper off its attack, creating the aural illusion of 
one long note: ("tinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng").

thanks,
Jesse Malone

The sustain is perfectly even with no drop or wavering in level.  Instead 
of
"ting" you hear "tingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg..."

I do something similar with the EDP and a gong.  Strike the gong then very
quickly step on EDP Record button twice.  You make a short loop of the 
gong.
Unlike the LCK infinite sustainer, you do get a bit of tremelo effect in 
the
sustained sound, but it still works quite well.  (The LCK goes through a 
bit
of signal processing to even-out the sound.)

Hi, What you describe with the triangle example (not the gong) is exactly 
what i want in sound. The LCK infinite sustainer..hmmm. Anyway, This is to 
be 
apart of a non-MIDI guitar rig, so does the LCK come as a footswitchable 
rackmount unit?--If not, what performs the same function as the LCK but is 
housed in a rackmount? I dont want software, because i dont want to have 
to 
deal with lugging an expensive laptop to rock gigs.

Oh and by "loop-like/digital delay repeats" --which I DONT want---I mean 
(to 
use your triangle analogy, "ting ting ting ting ting ting ting ting ting 
ting" ad infinitum..
thanks again,
