Re: "hold" note uninterrupted (original poster)
thanks for all the responses so far!
Anyway, to clarify something, I want a unit that has a pure "infinite"
sustain/feedback function. The suggestions given involving loopers dont
work,
because this is for realtime (live playing, so software doesnt work
either)
application, and i dont have the time to create a bed of layers resulting
in
a final sustaining pedal point drone. I just want to play a note, STEP on
a
button, without having to hold it down, and have that note/chord drone.
The
cyclic nature of the guitar string doesnt bug me, its doesnt have to be a
uniform sine wave drone (line a telephone dial tone), I just dont want to
hear the loop-like/digital delay 'repeat' of the note/chord.

uninterrupted without any hint of decay or repeated attacks. Something
like a
digital sustain pedal (for a guitar rig), that does not repeat the initial
attack like a looper does, but will hold a continuous drone of the note I
play when I activate the unit.
Also I do not want to have to hold the pedal down to keep the note
sounding,
I want to be able to hit the button once, which makes the note sound
uninterrupted for as long as I want, play whatever I want unaffected
(echo-free), and then when Im sick of the background droning note, I hit
the
button once again to deactivate the unit.
The unit may be a simple stompbox or a rackmount, as long as I can control
the feature via footswitch.
Anyone know of ANYTHING of this sort,
thanks
