How wrong is this? NOW w/ pix and videoclip

I think I'm getting loopy... no pun intended.
After spending the better part of the past week spent tweaking and programing banks in my G-System and not even dealing with loops yet, I decided to take my 1970's technology Echoplex and put it in loop 3 of the 2010's technology G-System and see what happens! John A. figured it was going to sound like a day at the ocean, but it's really cool. I set it to the same amount of delay as the delay in the G-System and was laughing out loud as I switched it in and out. Yeah, it does add some noise but nothing unusable- but it's just so wrong on so many levels!
This thing (G-System) is really amazing- I'm finding lots of different subtle effects that I can use and I'm still tweaking levels. I love the fact that you can program a setting with two things on, but program all of the effects that are off assigned to that patch and call them up on the fly! Right now, I'd like to use it in a live band setting at rehearsal but our drummer is away for another week on vacation...
Next thing I need to do though, is start playing around with the TC Nova Drive pedal. I really only use the Orange's distortion in channel 2 so it will be tricky to even find anything that I want to use so.... I do have to say, I played around with it outside of the G-System and the overdrive section worked beautifully with the Orange so I may have a different second channel sound in this pedal with channel 1. We'll have to see...
