I will agree that this is a very important feature for SFE, and is actually a long-term plan for 4.x.

We're planning a full CC94 insertion efx and XG insertion/variation effects implementation in future versions of SFE. Not only that, but you will be able to stack multiple effects on top of each other, only limited by your system's capability.

This means that basically all of these effects will be available via a standard SFE interface.

We're still determining what version to include these features, and the generator enum number. In fact, it may need a much more complex system than just generator enums.

When we're ready, I'll split off development of each effect.

Out of topic, but @sylvia-leaf why did you rename the repo? It was "SFe" before.

[sylvia-leaf]

I renamed it to SFE because I want to use all capital letters for an official abbreviation. I just think that it’s a bit more “professional.” The logo will remain “SFe” and “SFe” will be a stylised version of “SFE.” That’s all, nothing to worry about.

Also we need SC-8850 EFX support, and apparently VA-76 too, which is an extension of 8850 drastically. It's an old keyboard that inside has an extremely boosted 8850 and Tyroland supports its patches on the Itch, SourceForge and Archive.org links until MA is fixed. @sylvia-leaf

@stgiga I am well-aware of the VA-76.
