There could be something going on that may be fixable. Or, it could be a bug? Lowering the CPU% would most likely help. Post, or P.M. the preset so it can be checked out.

How many of you make use of SPILLOVER setting in your AX8 presets?

I never switch presets mid song. So I have 'Preset Spillover' off. I don't want some leftover Delay and/or Reverb tails hoping into the next preset I select. Especially if the new preset has some very wet settings. Spillover between scenes is another story.

That is the same way an effect bus running a Reverb works on a mixer. Whatever is sent to that Reverb will be in the Reverb tails. Unless you are using two busses into two reverbs, or a true stereo Reverb. It's very common to run a single Reverb for all of the vocal mics. You could use the two...

Axe-Fx Firmware Version 20.05 Public Beta (Beta 1)

For me, my 16.05 presets still have the Drive block, 'Mid High' parameter loading at '0.00' instead of '5.00'. I just used the Batch Setter function to set all channels, of Drive block 1 and 2, of every preset to '5.00'. Some Compressors are gain staged differently since their overhaul.

Can you enable a drive and keep it ON with an expression pedal?

Auto-Engage has settings for that. I prefer 'Med-Pos' if using the stock 'heal off' option. I also prefer having the Off Value set to 95% (toe off) so that I can play around, or park it in the lower ranges without it turning off. I very seldom park it at the high ranges. And it closer resembles...

You could use scene 2 for the Solo instead of a Control Switch, and have the other Control switches set to 'off' in that Solo scene? I would put the 2nd instances in series to keep it simple.

If Scenes won't fit your need, you could just use more block instances of each block that you are wanting a 'dual-control' type of action on. Drive 1, Filter 1 and Delay 1 are all attached to Control Switch 1 for solos. Drive 2, Filter 2 and Delay 2 are set up for direct individual control. etc...
