Feedback loop pedal always on

I'm thinking of getting this, because it looks and sounds fun. It is supposedly a clone of the Death by Audio Sonic Annihilation.

If I have my current effects chain (see my profile) and put them in the loop with the knob all the way down, will the feedback pedal not be feedbacking at all? So basically will I be able to use my effects which will be unchanged by the feedback loop until I turn up the feedback knob?

Thanks.

I'm not sure, but I would guess that it's all or nothing with that design, but as someone's already said, you should e-mail the builder and ask to know for sure. But if you want a pedal that works both as a loop and a feedback loop, you should check out Link Removed. I have one and like it a lot. It's an inspiring piece of gear, and not that expensive either.

Get one of these... I got one... it's awesome! :bassist:
Now I feel a sudden urge to buy another feedback looper...
