Actually, I think that would be better.

I've had it for a while now, and I'd trade the FX section in a heartbeat for some kind of internal gain control and a filter section. The built-in effects are basically all too limited and mostly sound kinda insubstantial to me. Something like POG/Holiest Grail Input Gain and maybe like the Microsynth or HOG filter section would really round out the synthy vibes, imo.

First impressions: WOW!
The added envelope section help a lot to control the pedal the right way!
I was using the old SE mostly always in latch mode, I was never that comfortable in auto mode, since I always felt it needed a quite loud/present sound to trigger the freezing effect. Now the threshold control on the SE Plus solves this issues brilliantly!
It's really handy behing able to scroll thru the modes by feet. I like also there's a little fade out when bypassing the unit in Auto and Latch modes, which makes the bypass feel more natural.
As I wrote somewhere here in a early post, I was quite skeptical about the effects. Now I must admit these helps also a lot making the SE+ sounding alive. I like a lot flange, phase, detune, the tremolos and Filter (it's not as aggressive as a MS20 or dubby like an Iron Ether Xero Deluxe, but to my good surprise with Res all the way up it does self-oscillation!).
