Boss LS-2 as a Feedback Loop???

I've never used an LS-2, but from glancing at the photo it looks like the only way to create a feedback loop is to connect one of the Send jacks to the input of the LS-2 (with some other pedals in between). Of course, then you wouldn't be able to plug in an instrument, and your signal would consist only of the noise generated by the pedals in the loop (which can be substantial).

 

Pedals with stereo inputs and outputs are much easier to turn into feedback loops.

If you use an Akai Headrush E2, it has 4 outputs. Use one of the outputs (which will only be one head of delay, and I'm not sure if, when you record a loop in the loop mode, if it sends it out of each output) and send that into the LS-2 and other pedals.

 

Or you could always put an A/B box before the LS-2 and other pedals. That way you can send your signal to your next pedal or amp, and ALSO the LS-2 and that loop.

Okay, but neither of those options turns the LS-2 into a feedback looper.

When I was referring to running pedals into the LS-2, what I meant was the LS-2, into other pedals, back into the LS-2, back out into your chain. Guess I should have completed the thoughts.
