Thanks for responding. Yeah, I'd love to see a screen shot of what you're thinking. Given the clarity you just provided, I think you're saying to create two paths within path 1 - path 1A/path 1B. I'm excited to see how you isolate each path (violin via aux 1 vs guitar via guitar in), splitting them to path 1A or 1B yet sum them to the looper. You'll be my hero and I'll cease to look like I'm tap dancing on stage. Ha ha.
