i don't think it will ever be fixed now since the helix and hx pedals have been released and the m line is most likely going to be phased out completely. i bought an hx stomp hoping it would be better/smaller/more effects/more presets but there was such a latency in switching program presets that i promptly sent it back and decided to stick with my m9. my latest solution, which i switched to some time ago, is to simply always have a delay on in the m9 or m5 as last in the chain and to control the effect mix with an expression pedal. this way the volume jump is always there and i can just fade in the mix of the delay if i want. i hope that at sometime they'll fix the latency problem in the hx stomp so i can switch to that eventually. having only 24 presets is a bit skimpy, luckily i can switch fx on and off or change fx in the presets with my g lab using cc's. this gives me more possibilities per preset.
