I use sooperlooper with a Behringer FCB-1010.  Like the 
other guys, I'm really happy with it.

My typical live SL setup is two stereo loops with the dry 
signal passing through clean.  I control it like this:

   * Expression pedal A: Loop 1 wet gain
   * Expression pedal B: Loop 2 wet gain
   * Pedals 1-5: Record, Overdub, Trigger,
     Undo, and Mute the "current" loop.
   * Pedal 6: select next loop.
   * Pedal 7: Mute all loops / Panic.

All messages are sent using CC's (whether it needs a CC or 
not).  Note that ALL of the pedals have to be configured so 
that expression pedals A and B do this.

There is Java-based editor for the FCB-1010, but it only 
supports a customized firmware called "UNO".  It is in many 
ways superior to the Behringer firmware... and well-worth 
the $14.  However, I've been using the older, buggier, 
factory firmware (v1.0) and it works just fine for me.
