You can achieve this without using loop objects:

  -a:LOW,MED,HIG -f:24,2,96000 -i alsahw,0,0

And then modify the LOW/MED/HIG chains:

  -a:LOW -f:24,2,96000 -el:bandpass_iir,1500,3000,2

.. and so forth. So what happens is that the audio captured from the
soundcard routed to three chains (LOW+MED+HIG). All of these chains have
different effects. At the end, the chains are summed up and written to
standard output.

Yes, the trick is to specify multiple chains with "-a:X,Y,Z" which causes
a single input/output to be routed to multiple chains. This is the "core
routing mechanism" of ecasound.
