if those echoes didn’t overlap (ie if you had low feedback) you could easily plock different delays at ‘different times’ of the track - but not at the same time, so it doesn’t work as you wish, but you can do small wonders with creative plocking so try to stretch it yourself
You can’t hold down a trig, go to the FX-track and change some delay-settings there, resulting in a p-lock for only that trig having a different effect configuration compared to the delay configuration in the other tracks?
I tried to do this yesterday and it seemed that it didn’t work, but I just want to make sure that I didn’t do something wrong.
But doesn’t this bother anyone here? Isn’t it extremely important to be able to have different delay and reverb effects for each track? Like, a delay or a reverb which works great for one sound may sound terrible together with another.
Dawid, you can do that with the mono machine delay. The MnM has one delay per each track. The A4 effects routing is send based, which makes a lot of sense to me as it keeps things cohesive.
Now, if you think about it, you can create pseudo delays with faster scaling of a track and micro timing shifts.
Now, if you want different delay/reverbs, you will have to create different patterns/kits.
No. The box does what is promised and it’s a reasonable decision to use a mixer with send effects instead of adding per-track effects on an analogue machine like this.
Depends. Having unlimited insert effects is something that only became available to producers without an unlimited budget over the last decade while everybody moved to DAWs. Before that, the setup you get inside the A4 is actually more-of-less what a lot of people worked with.
If you want per-track effects, then get an AK with an external mixer and a ton of effect units, or wait for Overbridge and use your DAW for per-track effect stacks.

Yup, I personally like my own mixes in a DAW to use sends for most basic effects to keep things cohesive. Of course you lose some versatility but it works for me for most cases.
