Wow Dale, very impressive. What is that, just one week of part time work!
I agree with Sean there does seem to be some needed tuning of those output allpasses, I'm sorry my sizes were probably not ideal.

You can increase your modal density by implementing the simplest form of the FDN. Simply take the output of loop1 and instead of feeding it back to loop1 feed it back to loop2, then loop2 to loop3 and loop3 to loop1.
Now your modal density is greatly improved and the modal peaks and valleys of your feedback loop will be much softer. This is because the amplitude of the modal peaks is proportional to the overall gain in the feedback loop. The gain will be less as the feedback path now moves through three gain reductions around the loop.
This change also tilts the design to a more balanced feed forward/feed back design as the loop now has 3 feedforward paths as well as the feed forward paths of the taps. Each of the 3 feed forward paths in the loop will provide its own modal pattern on top of the single feedback modal pattern.
