[. . . ] (may be set using footswitch) · Full MIDI control · Internal power supply Quick and Easy Program Fine-Tuning · Optional MPX R1 remote controller The MPX 1 comes loaded with 200 carefully crafted presets that Highlights reflect its versatility. Fine-tuning presets to match music or soundtracks is quick and simple thanks to pushbutton access to a Soft Row that holds the most useful parameter combinations for each program. Creating or restructuring programs is also easily accomplished with an Edit Mode that provides an extensive pool of effect parameters. On-Board Help The MPX 1 offers a built-in help feature to provide guidance through all front panel controls. Pressing and holding any button will display a message that explains its function without executing its action. 8 This allows exploration of most functions without ever opening the user guide. In addition to press-and-hold help, the MPX 1 has an optional sleep mode help that automatically displays useful messages when the system is idle. parallel stereo paths, which can be split and merged at multiple points. The routing map is rewired by changing graphic "patch cord" connections. Easy Operation The front panel of the MPX 1 includes dedicated indicators and displays that provide instant feedback of in-use and available features. Effect select buttons light to show currently active effects. A Tempo LED flashes to indicate the current tempo in programs that utilize tempo-controlled delay times or modulation rates. Patch options automatically "learn" MIDI control sources. Effects The MPX 1 has 56 Chorus, Delay, EQ, Modulation, Pitch, and Reverb effects. Each embodies the audio quality and control flexibility needed in a dedicated processor. Effects include: high-precision (32-bit) parametric EQ; rotary speaker cabinet simulator; high-quality 2-voice pitch shifter; delays and Echoes (Dual, Mono, and Stereo); Looper and Ducker; multi-voice stereo Autopanner, Chorus, Flangers, Phaser, Wah, and more. Patching System The ability to control dynamic effect parameters is essential to create great sounding programs. The MPX 1 patch system provides over 150 controllers that can be assigned to any effect parameter including: LFO(2), ADR(2), Envelope Follower(2), Arpeggiator, Random Generator, A/B Glide, Tempo, and a Sample and Hold Generator. In addition to five patches per program, there are ten global patches available at all times. Reverb Lexicon's renowned reverb algorithms are the foundation of the MPX 1: Ambience, Chamber, Hall, Gate, and Plate. All are true stereo with independent processing of left and right inputs. Thanks to its LexiChip® processor, loading a reverb into a program on the MPX 1 can be done regardless of which other effects are running. MIDI Implementation The MPX 1 offers extensive global MIDI control for individual and master Bypass, Mix, and Level controls as well as A/B, Tap, and all effect parameters. Tempo parameters synchronize to incoming MIDI clock, or the MPX 1 can transmit its own MIDI clock based on Tap tempo.
