Re: Boss DD-20 sos

["Kevin Cheli-Colando" <billowhead@gmail.com>]

As an owner of a DD20 who has not entirely warmed to it yet, I have to ask this question.  How do you manage to freeze a loop at 100% feedback and then solo or play over it without incorporating it back into the loop if you want to open it up again and add more to it later?

I know you can set up a loop and advance forward and then play in another bank but I was under the impression that the first loop was then locked with whatever settings it had when you moved on.  I feel like I may be missing something obvious, am I?

Thanks

Kevin

Till now you seriously considered yourself to be the body and to have a
form. That is the primal ignorance which is the root cause of all trouble.
