SELECTING AND LOADING PROGRAMS

The MPX 200 contains 240 presets and storage for 64
user programs. To select a preset or user program as the
running program:

1. Press the Load button. (Skip this step if the
unit is already in Program Load Mode.)

2. Turn the Adjust knob until the desired program
number appears on the display, or effects and
routing are indicated by the EFFECTS and ROUTING
(DUAL) LEDs.

3. Press Load again to load the selected program. The
program can also be set to load automatically (see
Auto Load on pages 3-3 and 3-6).

The number of the loaded program is displayed
on the three-digit display. The LEDs for the
selected program will light to indicate which
effects the selected program contains. If the
selected program contains a dual effect, the appropriate
ROUTING (DUAL) LED will light.

Basic Operation

2-3

After 4 seconds, the display and the EFFECTS and
ROUTING (DUAL) LEDs will revert to showing the
currently running program, but the Load button will
remain lit to indicate its armed status. To review the
cued program, rotate the Adjust knob one click to
redisplay its number and effects.

2. Press Load to load the cued program.

The Load button lights when a new program has
been selected for loading, indicating that the button
is armed. Pressing the Load button will load the
selected program. (If the selected program has not
been changed or the running program has not been
edited since it was loaded, the LED will not be lit,
indicating that pressing this button will have no
effect.)

Lexicon

The System Mode parameters Global Compressor Mode,
Global Mix Mode, and Global Tempo Mode (Tap) can be
set to either Global (Glo) or Program (Pro). When set to
Program, a change to these parameters is considered a
program edit and is reported with the activation of the
Edit LED. When set to Global, a change is not
considered an edit.

If Load is pressed prior to changing a parameter setting,
pressing Edit will return to the previous parameter. The
Edit button lights when a parameter setting has been
changed and differs from the stored setting.

Press the Load button to reassign the Adjust knob to
select Programs.

PROGRAM PARAMETERS

Mix (Dry, 1 to 100%)

Controls the proportion of processed (wet) to
unprocessed (dry) signals. Settings range from Dry to
100% (Wet).

Basic Operation

TEMPO FEATURES

TAP TEMPO

Tap allows delays and effects to be locked to the tempo
of the music. Whenever tempo is active in a program,
the green Tap/Cancel LED flashes. To lock the delay or
effect to the tempo of the music, simply press Tap/
Cancel twice in time with the music. The unit recognizes
tempos from 40 to 400 bpm (beats per minute).

AUDIO TAP

In addition to the Tap/Cancel button, tempo
can be entered with audio input, such as two
drum hits or a vocal countoff. To use audio input
to set tempo:

1. Press and hold the Tap/Cancel button for 2

seconds. (The dual footswitch input on the
rear panel performs the same function as the
Tap/Cancel button.) The display will read "Aud"
(Audio).

. . . continued on page 2-6

Lexicon

GLOBAL TEMPO

The Tap/Cancel button LED will flash when a tempo­controlled program is loaded. Most factory presets are
stored with individual tempo rates, which can be
customized to suit personal taste. Tap in the new tempo,
then store the modified version of the program in the
User Bank.

To recall the tempo rate stored with each program, set
the System Mode parameter Tempo Mode to Program
(Pro). The unit will apply the individual tempo setting of
each program as it is loaded. To apply the current tempo
rate to all programs, set the System Mode parameter
Tempo Mode to Global (Glo). The unit will ignore indi­vidual tempo settings and apply the current tempo set­ting to each program as it is loaded.

SETTING TEMPO VIA MIDI

When used in conjunction with Learn Mode, Tap can be
set remotely from any MIDI device. MIDI controllers,
such as the Lexicon MPX R1 Foot Controller, can be used
to send Continuous Controller messages or Program
Change messages to the MPX 200. Many mixing

Basic Operation

2-7

Attack controls how fast the compressor responds to
volume increases. The best setting for Attack depends on
the frequency content of program material. A fast Attack
setting allows less sound to "leak through" before the
compressor reacts to sudden volume increases. But if
Attack time is shorter than the period of the
predominant low frequency in the music, the
compressor will react to the music's waveform rather
than its volume envelope, resulting in various forms of
distortion. If this is heard with low-frequency material,
increase Attack.

Release time determines how fast the compressor
responds to volume reductions. With most music
material, Release time should be longer than Attack time.
This is especially true with instruments such as guitars or
pianos, which have their own natural slow volume decay
on sustained notes.

Compression can be overused. For most music material,
compression should be used in moderation so the
listener does not notice the results.

Lexicon

Release (4, 8, 16, 30, 60, 125, 250)

Controls the release time (in milliseconds) of the
compressor.

After changing parameter settings, the MPX 200 will
wait 4 seconds, then "timeout" and revert to displaying
the active program number on the display.

BYPASS

The Bypass button can be used to force the unit
to pass only dry audio, to mute the outputs
immediately, or to mute the inputs to the
loaded program. Its function depends on the setting of
the System Mode parameter Bypass Mode. When Bypass
Mode is set to Dry, the unit sends only dry, unprocessed
audio to the outputs. When set to Full Mute (Qui), the
unit mutes the outputs. When set to Input Mute (Inp),
the unit mutes the inputs only. Running effects will
continue their natural decay. When entering
Bypass Mode, “byP” will show on the display
and the Bypass LED will light.

When new programs are stored in a User Bank location,
any program that was previously stored at that location
will be automatically replaced.

Basic Operation

2-9

The Store LED will flash rapidly while the store operation
is occurring, and will no longer be lit when store is
complete. The Edit and Load LEDs will also no longer be
lit when the saved version becomes the current active
program.

CAUTION

SELECTING AND LOADING USER
PROGRAMS

During program selection, turning the Adjust knob to
numbers higher than the presets selects the user
programs, indicated by the letter “U.” To load a user
program, select the desired user program and press the
Load button.

If the selected User Bank location is empty, the EFFECTS
and ROUTING (DUAL) LEDs will not light and pressing
Load will have no function.

3. Digital Output (Pro, Dry)

Selects the source for the digital output. When set to
Pro, the digital output is the same as the analog
outputs. Its mix level will reflect the current setting
of the Mix parameter. When set to Dry, the digital
output is the input. This setting is useful for
recording dry tracks while still providing processing
at the analog outputs.

4. Global Mix Mode (Glo, Pro)

Controls the mix level that is applied when a new
program is loaded. Mix levels are stored with each
program. When Global Mix Mode is set to Program
(Pro), the unit applies the stored mix level of the
selected program to that program as it is loaded.
When set to Global (Glo), the unit ignores stored mix
levels and applies the current mix level to each
program as it is loaded.

Note:

Global Mix Mode appears on the display as “d-p”
for dry-processed. This name was chosen because
a digital display cannot show either “m” or “x.”

8. Global Compressor Mode (Glo, Pro)

Controls the compression settings that are applied
when a new program is loaded. Compression
settings are stored with each program. When Global
Compressor Mode is set to Program (Pro), the unit
applies the stored setting of each program as it is
loaded. When set to Global (Glo), the unit applies
the current compression setting to each program as
it is loaded.

Note:

The Program (Pro) setting for Global Compressor
Mode does not take effect until a new program is
selected.

9. Patching (On, Off)

Enables and disables Learned Patches. When set to
On, the unit responds to Learned Patches. When set
to Off, the unit ignores Learned Patches, preventing
accidental changes.

Lexicon

13. MIDI OUT/THRU (Thr, Out)

Controls the function of the MIDI OUT/THRU
connector. When set to Thru (Thr), the unit can
forward - but cannot generate or modify - MIDI
messages. When set to Out, the unit can generate its
own MIDI Dumps.

Note:

MIDI dumps can only be performed when the
System Mode parameter MIDI OUT/THRU is set to
Out.

14. Auto Load (On, Off)

Determines whether the front panel Load button
must be pressed to load selected programs. When
set to On, programs will automatically load 3/4
second after the Adjust knob stops turning. When set
to Off, programs will not load until the Load button
is pressed.

All of these programs should be used with Mix set to full
wet (100%). By adding more dry to the wet/dry mix,
Mix effectively sets the depth of the tremolo. Take care
to make the rate work with the tempo of the music, as
Tremolo is essentially a rhythmic effect .

A virtual requirement for any organ sound, the Rotary
programs also sound great with guitar and electric piano
rhythm parts. In fact, they are great alternatives to
chorus and tremolo effects for any sound source.

All of these programs should be used with Mix set to full

PITCH

Altering the pitch of a sound allows a variety of effects,
from subtle detuning to the creation of harmonies and
chords. The stereo polyphonic Pitch programs allow
complete program material or monophonic sources to
be shifted within a range of two octaves down to one
octave up.

For pitch correction, use these programs with Mix set to
full wet (100%). For harmonization, use the desired
amount of wet-to-dry Mix.

The Delay and Echo programs include mono (5.5
seconds), stereo (2.7 seconds), and 6-voice multi-tap
effects. Each program can be used for tape or digital
delay or echo effects. When the Adjust parameter is set
to a value between 0 and 63, digital delay effects are
produced. Each repeat is the same timbre, but softer.
When the Adjust parameter is set to a value between 64
and 127, tape effects are produced. Each repeat is
darker and softer.

In programs 90 to 97, the Adjust parameter sets the
amount of feedback with an increasing number of
repeats as the setting is increased. Delay time is set with
Tap. Each program is preset with a different useful
rhythm. In programs 98 to 104, the amount of feedback
is preset and the Adjust parameter determines the delay
time.

With all delay and echo effects, note the way the repeats
fall rhythmically to the beat. The most typical delay and
echo patterns are those that lock with the tempo of the
music.

• Set the Width parameter for the distance between
the speakers at each side of the stage. The program
loads with an assumed width of approximately 20
feet. The available Adjust knob range is 10 to 50 feet.
These values assume that most audience
members are seated within 30 degrees of either side
of the stage centerline. The Adjust setting can be
increased if many audience members are seated
further to the sides of the stage, but otherwise it
should be kept as low as possible.

• Banks 22 and 23 are arranged in Mono Split

configuration, which is similar to Dual Stereo
(Parallel), except one effect (Flange) receives audio
from the left input and the other effect (Delay)
receives audio from the right input. Both effects then
output stereo audio.

• Dual Mono programs are grouped in the last bank

(24). In these programs, one program (Flange)
appears on the left channel only and the other
program (Delay) appears on the right channel only.

Generally, the Lvl/Bal parameter controls the balance of
the two effects in each dual program. In the Cascade
variations, rather than simply controlling balance, the
Adjust knob varies the amount of the first effect or dry
signal that is fed into the second effect.

MIDI BANK SELECT AND PROGRAM
CHANGE MESSAGES

MIDI Bank Select messages can be sent to the MPX 200
with Continuous Controller 32. Bank 0 contains
programs 1 to 99; Bank 1 contains programs 100 to 199;
Bank 2 contains programs 200 to 240; and Bank 3 serves
as the User Bank. Bank selection is also accomplished
when a program is cued with the Adjust knob.

A MIDI Program Change message causes the selected
program to load from the selected bank, provided the
selected program exists and the System Mode parameter
MIDI Program Change has been set to On.
