I’d love to have a swing effect step allow me to ‘release’ whatever parameter type that effect is controlling.

For instance, with an intensity effect, I have the option of each step changing intensity, but the only way to go black would be to set intensity to zero.

If I have an additional effect running on the same fixtures (maybe a drum fill), I’d like it if instead of turning off intensity, I could release so anything else I want playing could effectively show as well.

So would we, but this is not possible in the current FX editor.

It remains on the wish list though.
