    I expected as much. The block really has a $#17load of parameters. Maybe the bare basics would be doable. Like time, feedback, pan, level... Leave the LFO, chorus, modulation, ring mods. etc., for Axe-Edit... It's indeed a hell of a thing to just get your head around how all the params interact...

    scene switching with time based effect produces pops, zippering, reverb tails.
