I still have problems with the Vortex - the few really interesting and
useful sounds I got out of it I found by blind trial and error, which is a
very tiresome method because most of the time the sounds aren't very
interesting (they sound to me like just another chorus/echo combination).
I still don't *understand* how it works. (This is largely due to lack time
plus my laziness which keep me from wading through the algorithm
descriptions.)
 
Getting a few more concrete ideas might help to really get a grip on it.
I still believe there is much more in there than it seems.
