Ok, back to topic...has anyone ever done a software version of the Vortex btw?
products, like in the MPX G2 (which I have).

I think it's very much down to the Vortex being too weird for the general audience, requiring too much understanding and experimentation, plus the most stupid lack of MIDI interfacing (always beats me why..?).
The supplied factory presets are mostly boring.
..which didn't exactly ease adoption to market, being so special..
The ability to Morph from one algorithm to a completely
different one is what really sets the Vortex apart,
and I reckon that was only intended to create a smooth
transition from one sound to the next.
I fully agree. Add to this best envelope follower I've ever seen, which
seemingly in a natural way interpretes the players picking frenzy.
Effects structure build on two separatly programmable delaylines.
Ability to work with extremely short delays making it possible to use it sortof as a digital (FIR) filter.
I've tried so many times not having it in my rig, mostly due to lack of MIDI and saving space, but it's still there, hard to be without ;)
