Having a blast with Effectrix! Amazingly good plugin, simple interface, quality effects. Totally worth the price for both Effectrix and Artillery. Hope these suggestions help you guys out!

First, I've been fooling with the automation and the presets a lot lately and find myself craving some more control, sort of a more high level version of the pattern keys...

Thinking some sort of "keylock" button for various parameters. Keylock the "X-Loop" plugin and the parameters of it change when you switch a pattern key, turn keylock off and it stays the same (like it does currently). Yeah, I know you can technically do this by just creating new presets and switching between those but having it integrated would make things a lot simpler and provide some really useful control. The more I think about it the more I realize how complicated it would be but hey, I'm sure you guys like a challenge right?

Or why not let Artillery control effectrix like that? If you own both it becomes some monster yodeling freakbomb muffincore plugin...

Second, copy and paste working across different presets for the pattern keys. This would be REALLY useful if the feature above is added so you could copy any additional parameters that are keylock'd but even now it would help to move some baseline effect sequencing around similar patterns. I'm happy ignoring tempo and other "master" parameters just to move the patterns around and see what they sound like. I don't know how the backend is but hopefully that's as simple as making whatever is in the copy cache global. Also, maybe have the "C" for copy stay lit when you have a pattern to paste?

Third, the pipe dream, a bit more control over the routing of the plugins. Don't know how it's done in the background but giving some sort of routing option on how the plugins interact with each other would rock. I can see how providing a user interface for really fine grain control would be hard but even just providing a few different options would be really useful. I know it was mentioned here someplace to be able to select a different plugin for each line in the first column, maybe have a button to switch between the default routing path (parallel through all effects?) to a routing path that goes through each plugin in sequence (eg., with the current setup when the route button is toggled the audio path would go -> X-Loop -> Loop -> Scratchloop -> etc...)
