It's pretty cool. You can route your 7 loops plus input/output in any order, series, parallel, feedback, and control gain on input or output of any connection. You can control it with either MIDI or a momentary footswitch, or bend over and push buttons on it if you have to. Expensive but they went on sale last February.
I really like your setup!

feedback, you say? how is this achieved with the switchblade?

They were $540 in Feb. for feedback just route a loop's output back to it's input. You might want to turn down the gain when u do this, I've done it by accident a few times and freaked my shit out, I was reeling in confusion and pain, like a crab on its back.
hbombgraphics wrote:Dark Barn, What do you use to switch it with? Midi controller? How hard is it to program?
It's easy to program, if you use the editor. Editor is Windows only though I use a midi controller or a momentary foot switch to control it, works equally well with either but you can do some deeper things if you send midi CC info to it.

Waiting on a new compressor and then hopefully I'll be done in the sense that I won't feel any urgency to make changes, just tweaks. You'll probably see me back in a few weeks if the compressor works out, apologies!
Most interesting board I've ever seen here so far, and I'm not familiar with half of the stuff.
I get instant boners when I see someone controlling stuff with MIDI.
