Very good point! A single, global FX send level is pretty useless
for drum kits...

I'm not sure this should be done at the patch programming level. (A
default setting could be handy, though.) It's probably more flexible
to control this via MIDI, somewhat like I described in an earlier
post.

Heavy plugin use, but definitely a desirable feature. Touches on a
modular synth style design...

This is where the master effect sends get in. Disabling the dry out
(volume CC) makes it come even closer.
