What is the problem?
We need an input gain for every effect, as every effect reacts different to level.
Take a distortion: more gain more distortion or the micro looper needs a threshold to react as instrument don’t have the same level on every note or take a delay…If you want a loud but short repeats you need level. Besides the fact that every effect sounds different on different input levels.
It would help very much that every single effect could sound right and level balanced when you switch the pedal on or off and you get quicker results that works.
When you play live with the pedal and you switch it on and off you need around the same level. And the gain staging of 4 serial effects is a pain.
What should this feature achieve?
Take a 3rd menu for every effect block and adding input level and output level. Maybe the mix parameter too.
Are there any workarounds?
In the moment I put a pan effect as my last effect to help not blowing the speakers out when I switch it on.

Any references to other products?
EVERY multi effect pedal from Line6, NeuralDSP, IK, Axe etc. got input and output gain per effect block.
