What it does

Six slots in series
Pick one of 92 effect units for each slot and bypass any slot on its own.
Eleven effect families
The units cover reverbs, delays, modulation, dynamics, EQ, filters, distortion, colour, amp simulation, creative effects and utilities.
Automation for every slot
Up to 8 parameters per slot show up in your host's automation, together with each slot's effect type and bypass.
The same units as the instrument
A delay or amp you set up on a Marquetry layer is the same unit here, so you can use it on a vocal or a drum bus.

Screenshots

Making a track sound worn: vinyl, cassette and telephone colour, then 8-bit crushing, a spring reverb and a compressor, in six slots on one track.
Building a guitar rig: overdrive into an amp and cabinet, then wah, phaser, a 300 ms analog delay and a plate. Each slot has its own bypass.
Gluing a drum bus: transients, bus compression at 4:1, tube saturation, EQ, a short room and a limiter. Your host can automate every slot's effect, bypass and up to 8 parameters.
Putting a pad in motion: a 1/16 gate, a quarter-note pump, ping-pong echoes, a moving filter and stutters, all from the creative, delay and filter families.
