Also, another way to make the sound different is to set your sends to "pre" and just turn the volume for a track completely down and send everything through the effects.

I also experimented with using drum pads for playing synths, instead of a typical keyboard. Switching the brain to another wavelenght. Same when starting with effects on. Although I'm not too keen on reverbs ;) A stack of beat repeaters for everything but the vocals can create some nice mess. Changing the approac from time to time is indeed important.

There's something magical indeed to make big soundscapes with lots of effects, reverbs and so forth. A majority of film music has that sound, too. There's a place for minimalist arrangements, too. Also, if all those effects overload the computer -- and there are some plugins that have badly written threading code so it takes over one core only -- there are always ways to just bounce the results and re-use them, or freeze the track.
