And FX 11 is pretty far out there. I rarely get to those slots. When you get out there, you've probably done a lot of meticulous editing :P

Woops, missed this. 11 isn't a lot haha. In fact, it's best to set EACH channel to its own insert imo). I guess that is more meticulous though heh.

let's say I want to create a song that has an irregular structure, like a rhapsody. very little of what I put in the song repeats. I don't want to have to use a separate pattern for each measure and stuff, so how would I simplify this?

Use piano roll and you can make it go for as long as you want instead of just one measure. Also, you can't change time signatures in the middle of a project so you're going to have to work your way around that (probably just set the main project to 1/4 if you're planning on time signature changes =\)
