Effect chains

Asked by jus

I just started using effects in Mixxx - whats the deals with effect chains?

*Currently, the name of an Effect chain is predetermined by the first effect that is loaded in the effect unit. If you customize an effect chain and change the default effect to something different, the name of the effect chain is basically wrong and can`t be changed.
* Also if you fill the available slots in an effect chain to your likings, is there a way to save the chain? Currently, all changes are gone poof if you switch to the next chain.

Saving customized chains is an unfinished feature.

Because of that, I have not implemented changing the chains in the Shade skin.
It just allows changing the effects inside the first empty chain.

Offering both methodes in the Skin GUI is a bit over done for me. Even if we can save chains, we should only offer to change effects on one level in the skin GUI. It is better to put the other level to a special effect prepare GUI.

It should be possible to have a generic "save state" button that is not skin-dependent.
