Vortex?

High;

I'm new to the list and very glad to have found this list. I won't go into 
the long drawn out introduction here and now. I'd just like some opinions. 
I borrowed a Lexicon Vortex for the weekend with the idea of maybe 
purchasing it. The price is reasonable even though no pedals or 
footswitches are included. So i got it into my studio where i hooked it up 
with a couple of other pedals i use regularly. The routing is like this:

instrument to Zoom Bfx708 (multi effects pedal), mono out from Zoom to 
Vortex, stereo out from Vortex into stereo in of Line 6 Delay Modeler, 
stereo out from Line six to two channels of the hard disk recorder


So i've recorded over three hours of improvisations with the Vortex and 
have (so far) come to the conclusion that it isn't doing anything that i 
couldn't do with my Delay Modeler and the BFX708. I downloaded the .pdf 
manual for the Vortex and read it. Good manual. Still, i heard far more 
interesting stuff when i bypassed the Vortex and fooled around with the 
BFX 
and Delay Modeler.

Any opinions, ideas or suggestions?

Thanks;

Jair-Rôhm Parker Wells
