I run my Trons dry into a Mackie 12 channel mixer, then loop it out and through an Alesis Nanoverb and back into the mixer on a different channel. I pan the separate channels left and right and can activate the reverb with a foot switch. It gives a very interesting sound, with the reverb saturation control right at my fingertips.

I ran my tron dry into a Mixmaster set on low for 30 seconds, then slowly mixed in 30 pounds of creamed butter, 16 1/2 pounds of sugar, a pinch of salt, three dozen beaten eggs, a teaspoon or two of vanilla extract and around 60 pounds of flour. I got some VERY interesting cookies after baking for 20 minutes in a 325 degree oven. Had a hard time finding an oven big enough and we were still pulling bits of tape from our teeth a month later...
