Bypass
Setting Tempo via MIDI
When used in conjunction with the Learn
feature, Tap can be set remotely from any
MIDI device. MIDI controllers, such as
Lexicon's MPX R1 Foot Controller, can be
used to send Continuous Controller mes-
sages or Program Changes to the MPX 100
or you can send Continuous Controller or
Program Change messages from the button
and fader moves of many mixing consoles.
The MPX 100 will Learn these messages
and allow you to set tempo via MIDI.
Pressing the front panel Bypass button
will cause the MPX 100 to pass only dry,
unprocessed audio, or to mute the inputs to
the current effect.
The MPX 100 can also receive and
utilize MIDI Clock. So, when used with a
MIDI sequenc er or drum mac hine, the
MPX 100 automatically adjusts its inte rnal
tempo to match. (See MIDI Operation.)
A System Mode parameter determines
which of these two options is in effect. (See
System Mode.) Bypass functions can also
be activated by footswitch or via MIDI.
Bypass can be set to mute or
bypass effects.
