So I'm tuned low-high EGBEGBDG, which is my go-to 8-string lap/console tuning.
The first pedal raises the D to E, then lowers the middle E to D. I can feel the halfway stop very easily.
The second pedal raises the D to E and the high B to C.
The third pedal lowers the middle E to D and the high G to F#.
The fourth pedal lowers the low E to D.

Wow. I spent a few hours last night going through the suggested copedents on the site, as well as some of the ones in the 400 manual. Ended up back with my console tuning, but changed the pedals around.

Both Pedals 1&3 have a positive stop after the raise/before the lower, effectively giving me two extra moves. I don't think there's anything missing in this tuning that I'll be looking for musically.
