Yes, I agree. On board effects are a bad idea unless there's an
especially good reason or a big payoff.
A tape echo would be great because you already have the motor going
and you have a completely tape friendly environment with extra room.
Kind'a obvious when you think about it. :-)
Though not as winning, a spring reverb would still be nice because
spring reverbs are bulky, there's plenty of space in a 'tron, and the
tradition of spring reverbs in Mark II's and Hammonds.
