Tune silently while not cutting of other sounds

[freyaut]

Hello folks!

I have a question which I have a hard time finding an answer to, since I don't really know what to look for.
Is i possible to play a riff with delay / glitz and then switch to the tuner, without cutting off the sound? 

I am the only guitarist in our band, and when I am tuning between songs, all the ambient noise / music that I create cuts off as soon as i switch to the tuner. 
So my goal would be:
1) Finish song.
2) Play a riff with heavy delay and or glitz effect to fill the silence between songs
3) Switch tuner and tune silently (!) without cutting of the ambient sounds

Is this possible, or do I need to use a separate tuner for this?

Regards, 
Frey

Assign a FS to the FEEDBACK parameter with the MIN set to your default and MAX set to 100.

FS ON = INFINITE repeats; FS OFF = DEFAULT repeats.

Place your VOLUME block before the effect.

Start the effect by hitting a note and the FS (or vice versa), pull back the VOLUME and turn on the tuner.

When you're done tuning, exit the tuner and hit the FS again to stop the effect.

There's probably other ways and it may depend on the effect, but I tried it with a Simple Delay and it worked a treat!

@rd2rkthank you! That worked great!
Still trying to figure out if I prefer the effect as it's own snapshot (for layering with other snapshots) or really just a "freeze" effect via the Stomp FS. So many possibilities! Thanks!
