Lexicon MPX G2 manual Soft Row Editing, Gain, Drive

A/B is a unique glide function which allows you to "morph" between selected parameters. Most effect parameters (or groups of parameters) can be patched to the A/B controller. Once a parameter is patched, the A/B controls in Edit mode allow you to select the rate at which you want to glide from A to B and from B to A when the front panel A/B button is pressed. You can also assign the glide function to be triggered by any internal source, such as input level, or by an internal or external controller.

Many of the presets are designed with A/B patches that allow you to morph between two effects, glide from slow to fast rotary speakers, start and stop loop delays, etc. Loading any program with A/B control assigned, will cause the front panel A LED to light, indicating that the A/B function is active. Press A/B to activate a glide from the parameter values assigned to A to the parameter values assigned to B. Press A/B again to glide back to the A parameter values. (When you want to change the A/B parameters, control A/B remotely, assign a trigger source, or alter the rate of glide, refer to Chapter 4: Patching and Chapter 8: MPX G2 Internal Controllers.)

The MPX G2 offers access to the most useful parameters of any program without having to enter a separate Edit mode. These parameters are available at any time by pressing Soft Row.

The upper line of the display will show the Effect type, the parameter name and the current parameter value. The lower line of the display will show the name of the program. Use the knob to change the parameter value. Use the < and > buttons to move back and forth between the available parameters. A scroll indicator in the lower left corner of the display tells you whether or not there are more parameters in either direction.

Changes you make to parameters in the Soft Row will be saved only until you load another program unless you store your modified version of the program. See Program Store later in this section.

Basic Operation

A/B

When A is lit, pressing the A/B but- ton activates a parameter glide. Pressing A/B again reverses the glide.

Soft Row Editing

Press Soft Row to access a set of the most useful parameters for each pro-

gram.

Press Soft Row to access Soft Row parameters. The Effect type and the parameter name will appear on the upper line.

Scroll indicators (< and >) on the bottom of the screen point you in the direction of additional screens.

The parameter value will flash in the lower right. Use the knob to change the param- eter value, use < and > to select another parameter screen.
