Yep. I don't consider myself as a pro, but I know what you mean. These 
days, the dynamics and textures an average synth or FX module can produce 
is amazing. Less is often more. It's an art to have total control over you 
mix, especially when playing a live band. Regarding the analog delay 
sound, I often use it as a wall paper sound in the back with a clear 
guitar or flute sound on top of it; works very well that way.

Btw: I believe you use a Fireworx. Do you think it still is good value for 
the money for a device designed 10 years ago, 1998?
