Thanks Robert.  I do like colorful sounds--I like the shocked looks on people's faces when they figure out that the new noise coming from the stage is the harp.  I set the patches up so the FX come on strong at full throttle, then I put them under footpedal control so you can set the throttle where you want it.

The three patches you named are three of my personal favorites, too.  I use them all the time.  How can you go wrong with any of a 57 Champ, an autowah, and a rotary speaker?
