Hi! Since they don't take up too much CPU, can we have a couple more?
Things that need more than 4 VolPans.Four isn't cutting it? What are you needing to do that the other options won't cover?
Filter blocks, set to Null are very low CPU. There are four of those too. But I'm sure that you know that already. If you are needing the ability to select the Right or Left input, the Mux block has that ability too. As well as the Drive and Amp blocks.Things that need more than 4 VolPans.
Since my presets are currently in two rows, I am currently working around it by using the volume/level adjustments in the Feedback Return block to save a VolPan, but there are some presets where I've maxed them out even doing this....
Will dig around and find a couple examples. Was out amongst the Walmartians on a consumerist jaunt....can you show an example where 4 isn't enough? just curious, and more information provided in wishes tends to lead to them being implemented.
Some years back, @clarky had some wonderful threads in which he dealt with morphing at great lengths, overcoming the very problems you're encountering.I tried using the balance knob and setting the two amps' inputs to Left and Right respectively, but due to the difference in the gain levels between dirty and clean amps, was not able to get it to pan smoothly between them, and there's a portion of the crossfade where the two get louder, at the middle of the balance knob's range.
I find that using a Linear pot on the clean amp and a 30A or 20A pot on the dirty amp when using the dual VolPan method seems to make for the most seamless transfers from clean to dirty. Basically, start with the 30A, and if it swells during the crossfade, go to a lower number. Most of my stuff is adequately handled by 30A and 20A, but a really balls-to-the-wall gain-banger of a lead amp might need one of the lower ones. Will have to search for Clarky's threads and see what he came up with.

You could use the 'Filter' block, and could likely mimic the different Vol/Pan curves in the Edit Modifier Window. And also tie the same controller to the 'Gain' and/or 'Frequency' parameter to alter the E.Q. a bit to make the transition smoother?
Doesn't the '-80 dB' setting effectively mute the signal?
Most of his solutions involve the clever manipulation of modifier curves.Will have to search for Clarky's threads and see what he came up with. Thanks!
Do you ever need to use both outboard effects connected to 'Input 3' or 'Input 4' at a time?
If not, a single Vol/Pan block could use channels to select which side of it's input is being used. Also check out the 'Multi-Plexer' block, it also has the ability to select which row, and which side to use. It can't be bypassed, but you can use an unused row on one of the channels as a mute. Or just bypass the Input block(s)
I would be nice if the 'Filter', 'GEQ', and 'PEQ' blocks had the ability to select which side of their inputs to use.
