Cables crossing over each other at right angles 'can' cause hum.
Put a battery in the pedal and try it. Does it hum on the floor away from your amp? -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Maybe the looper has a problem? I´ve tested it with the JOYO and MOEN looper. Both have the same problem. But both are no high priced tools;) I dont have another one |

Is the hum there without going through the loop?

Maybe there's a bad cable - have you tried the setup with all new cables? Borrow soome from a friend to see if the problem still persists! I using this cables: http://www.thomann.de/gb/cordial_cfi_06_rr.htm I have 20 cables from this brand 0,15m 0,3m 0,6m I had some problems even considering I've done all possible to avoid ground loops etc. I have even made my FCB1010 get an external power supply to place the transformer far away from wah wah coil. When I've added small lopper I had this problem but There was a magic switch (not called that way) like ground lift and it did the job. Try to search Your loopper for additional switches. Also...DC power supply usually have separated outputs but it's worth trying to use one output with doubled plug to connect both devices to one power supply out. Ofcourse...If a summary of both devices current consumption doesn't not cross the limit for this particular output It is not a ground loop problem. It looks like a shield problem from the cables It's starting to sound like you have some bad patch cables!! I'd say try to get some new/better patch cables maybe? I dont wanna pay 10 EUR for one cable And here you can see a video without the looper And this is something I dont understand. Without the looper I can put the pedal directly beside or above the power supply |

10 Euros for a cable - any length - is cheap.
The wire, the connectors and workmanship (soldering) will make a HUGE difference in the results. 1 to 3 meters of normal and decent quality guitar cable here in the states will run you a minimum of $20.00 US (16 euros). Decent (no radio shack crap) fx patch cables (3" - 6") will run you no less than about $5.00 a piece and can be considerably more expensive. Cheap cables can be a killer.
