MPX 550

Program Descriptions

STEREO STAGE

Stereo Stage provides stereo reverb while preserving the dry signal. To use this program, note the following:

•Use the MPX 550 in line between the mixer and house amplifiers - not as an effect mixed back into the main left and right channels on the mixer.

•Pan the input channels on the mixer fully to each musician’s side of the stage.

•Keep the Mix parameter set to 50% (the default Program Load Mode setting).

•Adjust reverb level by setting the Efx Bal parameter between 100:0% (full left) and 60:40%.

•The ideal setting for the Width parameter depends on the distance between the speakers at each side of the stage. The program loads with an assumed spacing of about 20 feet, with an adjustment range of 10 to 50 feet. The width setting assumes that most audience members are seated within about 30 degrees to either side of the stage centerline. If audience members are seated further to the sides of the stage, the setting can be increased. Otherwise, it should be kept as low as possible.
