@jofemodo — that’s a much better structure than what I had in mind, thank you. Load-mergeable snapshots make total sense: people keep their own setup intact, just pull in the chain they need, and the chain itself stays editable for further sculpting. I’ll follow that format going forward.

@HansR — wow, that’s a serious head start! Seven ZynAddSubFX chains covering CS-80 Guitar, The Unknown Man, Blade Runner, Brassy, two Vangelis Strings variants and Chariot Strings — thank you for sharing. I’ll load it tonight and have a proper play. If it’s okay with you, I’d like to take this as the seed snapshot for the Vangelis entry of the collection, with full credit to you.

Next on my side: digging through Dexed for the _NeverEnding Story_ sounds (bells, brass stabs, that pulsing bass) and packaging them the same way — one chain per voice, load-mergeable.

Cheers,

Thimo
