Yeah, but EQ isn't the only thing. I'm a bassist, and I typically run with compressor, a light touch of delay, a slight touch of SansAmp Bass DI, and an Aphex Aural Exciter all always-on. The only things I change beyond that are actual effects that I switch on/off during a performance. Ideally there'd be some way to designate each of the upper 4 blocks as "global/universal", so they "stick" there across all presets/scenes/etc and you only have to set them up once. And then also provide the ability for me to manually/custom-route the pedal chain... what I want is the compressor and delay first in the chain, then all my switchable effects, followed by the SansAmp and finally the Aphex. So I'd need the ability to have slots 1 & 2 first, then the output of 2 running into 5, 6, 7, 8, and then the output of 8 running back into 3 & 4, with 4 being the last in the chain.
