I've never played a delay that had a spillover option that would allow you to keep adding to the loop of delay feedback. I am not a tech person, but I don't think that can be done internally. I would think you would need something like a two amp setup and an amp switcher to achieve that kind of control

FYI -- For those curious about the questions I was raising, I received this email from Moog's Tech Support:
Moog's Tech Support wrote:Yes, you can still manipulate the delay time in spillover mode with the switch and knob.
Yes, the spillover can be sent through the effect's loop.
Basically, the mod keeps the mix knob active. No new audio is sent to the delay circuit. However, any audio left inside the delay circuit can still be heard and manipulated. With the feedback knob turned up all the way, for example, the delayed signal will keep on going.

Maybe a worded that wrong, but you know when you crank up the feedback and just play a "C", the C keeps repeating on and on. Then play a "G" and the "C" doesn't just vanish they kinda get blurred together a little until the G takes over. I guess that's the best way I can desribe it. I know it won't function like an actual looper were you can just keep overdubbing

I get what you are saying. I don’t know if this is the case with the Moog or not, but in my experience with spillovers, when you reactive the bypass switch, the old content disappears. It's almost like a reset button.
Moog Tech gave me a quick response, you should email (through the form on this site) and clear this up.
