I've had great luck and lots of fun putting the FreqOut into the loop, and then using a mixer block and an external momentary switch to bring it in and out. I've played with the mixer block both in front and behind the pedal, changing how the effect responds.
Really cool thing you can do is add another delay and or reverb block in series behind the fx return from the pedal, all of which is run in parallel, so then you can do things like having a super long delay trail on the feedback, even after you'd let off the momentary switch and went back to playing without the effect being active.
Depending on how you set the pedal, such as if you use the low or sub octave settings, this can give some really cool synth effects, or Gilmour "seagull"/whale tones etc.
Really fun pedal that is great bang for the buck and gives a unique element of guitar tone, which otherwise isn't always easy to get playing direct, save for having some real stage volume.
As an aside, I've found that when I do have my monitor up loud, a quick step on the pedal basically kicks my rig into instead real acoustical feedback, and at a much lower volume than I otherwise need. SO it kind of can simulate the effect on its own, and also help out the real FB effects
Sorry for commenting on an old post... I'd love to see how you route all this because I'm lost in your description about adding the mixer and effects. I just run it into the In/Out 3 on the FM9 now. I'm also debating just running it in front of the unit so I don't have to add it to new presets but I do hear the change in tone a bit although It's not terrible, just noticeable.I've had great luck and lots of fun putting the FreqOut into the loop, and then using a mixer block and an external momentary switch to bring it in and out.
