Is that what’s happening to me, lol.

This statement is accurate as flowers tho.

Yep, Roland has the best digital fx so far.
They are modeled from hw Boss legacy and they sound damn right.
But Air fx are very good also.
Good modulations (Phaser is excellent), good eq and comp, good delay and a good reverb (with current cpu, is the best you can get).
All parameters are there, just take time to learn them and dial the right amount.
You have enough to make pro music.

I guess that a convolution reverb is ruled out by hardware limitations.

Wouldn't say no to updates on algorithmic reverbs incl. more fine grained control and extras like ducking.

sounds like multitap and delay pro are taken from the fx section of opx4 , if so i think they should be free, like when they added air flavour, taken from fx section of solina and mellotron...

Now that you mentioned it..
I was playing with opx4 today and I swear the spring reverb sounds much better than the air spring rev. it had that characteristic metallic oscillation that is very very subtle in the air plugin. or maybe I am dreaming. I need to check again.
