Lexicon MPX G2 manual Effect1 and Effect2, Detune M, Detune S and Detune D

MPX G2 User Guide	Lexicon
Effect1 and Effect2	Effect descriptions for all of the effects contained in Effect1 and Effect2 are combined in
	this section.
	Effect1 and Effect2 contain identical effects, except for the first seven effects in Effect1.
	These are Pitch effects: Detune (M), (S) and (D), Shift (M), (S) and (D) and Diatonic Hmy.
	In these effects, Tune controls the amount of pitch shift. The Optimize parameter (an
	option of Tune) allows balancing of any artifacts vs. the amount of delay through the
	effect. Higher settings of Optimize are good for chords and low notes, lower settings
	minimize the delay through the effect.

Detune (M), Detune (S) and Detune (D)

	Detune effects are useful	for			Detune (M)	Detune (S)
thickening up sounds by adding
delayed/pitch shifted versions of
the original source. They can be
particularly effective when used to
simulate double-tracking. They
are also great alternatives to cho-
rus effects as a detuner can add
the richness of a chorus effect
without the audible sweep caused						Detune (D)
by the chorus rate. Detuners are
also traditionally used to turn a six-
string guitar into a twelve-string, or
an in-tune piano into a honky-tonk.
The MPX G2 detuners are opti-
mized to provide very fine amounts
of pitch shift.
