Inspired by this post in the Effects forum discussing Enso Looper and the Frippertronics technique, I thought I'd have a go at a similar idea with MSuperLooper. I basically wanted to see what would happen if you plugged MSL's outputs back into its inputs, inserting some effects into the resulting feedback loop. Here are the results of that experiment:
It's a pretty basic example, but hopefully you can see the potential of such a setup. There's just two guitar tracks in the looper, each outputting to separate (but identical) instances of Turnado. Turnado is being controlled with an expression pedal and the faders on a nano Kontrol.
The nano also has one of its knobs set up to control the send levels out of Turnado, which are routed back *into* MSuperLooper. So, turning that knob up = the ability to resample and overdub the effected guitar parts back into the looper, adding more and more complexity to the original basic loops. Turning the knob up also turns down the 'DRY FX' parameter in MSuperLooper - this is a safety precaution which mutes the incoming signal from my guitar and prevents any nasty digital feedback from building up.

And that same technique can be used with any long delay too.
Nice demonstration on routing properly.
