FeedBack Pedal?

If I ever need a feedback sound, I use a Symmetrix effects box that does crazy delays and reverbs. I'm tempted to try messing around with MIDI stuff to program it, as you can program it with MIDI to make it distort and the like. But yeah, it has a feedback setting, which can do anything from mild to non-stop feedback (so much that you can't hear the bass). However, the box isn't mine, and it belongs to my church. (Imagine having extreme feedback in the middle of a hymn :eyebrow: .)

Effector 13 makes a series of wild feedback loop pedals with a optical sensor to manipulate the output.

One example is the Truly Beautiful Disaster. Which is also a fuzz pedal.

yeah, IIRC, effector 13 had a "feedback pedal" through which you ran a loop of the pedal(s) you wanted to feedback. sounded pretty cool

I have this! It is called the E-13 Feedback Loop Oscillator and there were only between 10-12 ever made! The feedback can be quite varied considering what pedal you put through the loop. Sometimes there is no real feedback at all- just chirps and other noises. However, I definitely can get some great feedback with certain pedals. I love it and shall never part with it. I am going to get buried with it upon death!) I am hoping that another special volume knob can be modded for it to control the volume of the feedback - not the just the overall volume of the pedal chain in gemeral (which is the volume knob function that it comes with).
