Just finished this little gem. Works fine in and outside a feedback loop. It sounds best and has more range in a loop, however. I strongly suggest this pedal be used in a feedback loop with a strong and manipulatable single such as a headphone feedback loop in a mixer so that you can control the headphone level as well as the EQ on the mixer channel. Run in a loop with an EQ pedal is fine, too. The reason I suggest having it in a loop with an EQ is because you can get a lot more out of this pedal working with sending it high frequencies from the EQ, and minimal amounts of signal using the volume of the EQ pedal (or the headphones level on a mixer). Otherwise, running low frequencies and super hot signals will produce not much more than uninteresting clicks.

The first of the sound clip is just the pedal on it's own. No feedback loop and just a dead cord plugged into the input. The second portion is the pedal in a feedback loop using a mixer. I am manipulating the two toggle switches as well as the added potentiometer along with the headphone output level and the EQ in the channel the pedal is running into.

If used how I have instructed, you can get a huge variety of harsh sounds out of the pedal. There are some nice sweet spots with the pot that you can find, too. The pots the pedal came with also work. The overdrive level knob will do all sorts of things. The volume knob works as a volume but also feeds the circuit more signal as you turn it up which will increase the pitch of squeals and make the pedal act crazier the higher it is.
