We present the chronological series of acoustic emission (AE) signals detected in samples of Westerly granite loaded in different regimes, one of which included a feedback loop between the axial stress and AE activity. In both regimes, the fracturing system evolves without a characteristic energy scale and with the same scaling exponent independently of the applied feedback. The scaling properties of the waiting-time distribution are more sensitive to both the drive control and the stage of fracture process. The revealed period of a lack of time correlation during continuous loading is explained by the transition between the hierarchic levels in the heterogeneous material.
