engaging a drive pedal while looper is running

Hi,
I am running my Axe FX II (ver 9 beta) and MFC-101 (ver 2.13) and have placed a looper in the preset at the very beginning of the chain.

I record a loop with a fairly clean tone a play it....while playing I engage a drive pedal in the preset expecting to be able to play a lead tone over the loop but the loop itself picks up the newly added effect. How do I accomplish keeping the loop as is and changing tones to play over top?

Thanks,
D
 
Put the Looper last in the chain.

Yeah, you just have to think about the signal path. If your looper is in line with other things after it, everything coming out of the looper is going to pass through those blocks.

Last in the chain is where my looper blocks generally go, but you might not necessarily want that. Just depends on what you want the looping to do. If you're using it to tweak tones (i.e. play a riff and have it loop while you change settings), you'd of course want the looper in front of the block(s) you're tweaking.
