Car Roamer Herbie Ch2- I like it. No massive distortion in any of them, but still big and bold and with attitude. Cleans up nice. I just tweaked the speaker freq by ear to blend them 'into each other'. And pretty default settings on amps.

Hold parameter in Reverb block.

Can anyone please check if the envelope follower as a modifier on the hold parameter activates/deactivates the function? I expected to see that parameter change back and forth (On & Off). But it didn't. FW 18.x (don't remember the exact second number in the FW version).
