How can I stack more than 4 x fx? are there workarounds? Could really use 8-12 for "complex" live input manipulatuonb of a mixrophon3 during s performance. Maybe sends?

If you‘re ready to commit yourself, there‘s always resampling.

Pad + program + main = 12.
Pad + sub + main = 12.
Pad + program / sub + main (4 sends) = even more fun.
Sends mix fx into your audio route, it doesn’t take away your dry signal.

You also got 4 input FXs & you can always Flatten Pads to bake in the current FX & other settings like the 8 Drum FX per pad. Don't sleep on them Drum FX!

It affects all signals coming out of it.
This is how I currently have my mixer (Mackie 1202-VLZ Pro 4) set up:
-I send the Force Main outs 1 & 2 to the mixers Returns which is like a striped down channel in, but it doesn’t use up a pair of channels inputs.
-The Force outputs 3 & 4 goes to the mixer channel ins. Also the headphones is plugged into the mixer not the Force.
-The mixers alternative outs 3 & 4 goes into the Force ins. On some Mackie mixers each channels mute button instead of just cutting the audio like most mixers, will send the signal thru the alternative outs 3/4. I have to set the Force to Resample inorder to record both the input FXs & master out FXs.
-Most tracks on the Force uses the Force’s 3/4 outputs, so they're not affected by the master outs 1/2 FXs, until I press the mute/alt out button on the mixer, which sends the Force (3/4 outputs) tracks on the mixer back into the Force inputs that now comes out of the main the Force main 1/2 outs that goes to the mixers Aux returns. Confused
I know I am, let me go double check everything again for 100th time. 
A mixer with USB that can be use as audio interface would more efficient for me, but until then this setup offers some flexibility.
You can also use the 4 input FXs & 4 master out FXs if your sending the master outs to a external recorder.
