okay, so squirt and i were talking on the phone tonight and feel like we've hit upon a cool idea for a looper pedal.
here's what we want to do:
build a loop pedal with 2 seperate loops, loop A, and loop B. but, we want to put an on off switch on it too.
here's the scenario: when you're playing you have three choices, clean (pedal off), crunck rhythm (loop A), and lead boost (loop B). that way when you're playing and you want to take a lead you won't need to click off one pedal and then turn on the other, you can toggle between them. and you have the choice of going back to clean.
no suggestions for the full drive or other pedal with a boost on it please, chris already has one. and we ain't stacking pedals either. sorry, don't want to sound like a dick. but we have a plan.
so what i was thinking is that i could build basically 2 loop boxes into one, have both loops on the toogle (between A and B) return to the same spot, and then go into a true bypass switch that controls whether the loop pedal is in or out of your signal.
is this do able, or whould i get a ground loop hum? i remember reading about somebody that had one built like this for them, can't remember who. i think it's a cool idea, and if it can be done (i'm sure it can, i'm just not too savvy with modding or building pedals) i'm gonna build one for myself too.
thanks all for taking the time to indulge this .
