Using the MX200

The MX200 is equipped with 99 Factory
programs that combine the 32 reverbs and
effects to cover a wide range of applica-
tions. Additionally, there are 99 User pro-
gram locations in which to store your own
reverb and effects combinations. These
are identical to the Factory programs until
you change them.

Loading Programs

To load a program:
1. Choose a program by rotating the
Program Select knob. The selected
program number flashes in the Program
Display until loaded. A small LED dot
appears in the lower right portion of the
Program Display if a User program is
selected.
2. Press the Program Select knob to
load the program.
If you would like the programs to be loaded
automatically as they are changed with the
Program Select knob, you can enable the
AutoLoad function (see page 23 for more
information).

Editing Programs

After selecting a Factory or User program,
you may find that it needs some modifi-
cation for a particular application or use.
This may include changing one of the
three Parameter knobs on each proces-
sor, changing the Mix 1 or Mix 2 settings,
altering the Routing, changing the delay
Tempo or engaging one of the Bypass
buttons. When any of the Parameter or
Mix knobs are used, a numerical value for
that parameter will briefly appear in the
Program Display while the knob is being
turned. A small LED next to the knob will
illuminate, denoting a change from the
saved value, and the Store button will
light, indicating that the loaded program
has been modified. To retain these chang-
es, you must store them to a User program
location (see Storing Programs).
Knob and button LEDs are green for
Processor 1, and red for Processor 2, to
correspond with their respective LED color
in the Active Reverb/Effects Matrix.
Either Factory or User programs may be
edited, but they may only be stored to a
User program location.
The Parameter knobs have different
functions for each reverb and effect. For
detailed descriptions of what each knob
does, refer to the Effects Descriptions
section.
To edit a program:
1. Load a program using the Program
Select knob.
2. Make any of the following adjustments
or changes:
• Select effects with either or both
Effect Select buttons.
• Modify the program with the Pre
Delay, Decay, or Variation knobs.
• Bypass a processor using P1 or P2
Bypass button.
• Change tempo using the P1 or P2
Tempo button.
• Adjust the Wet/Dry mix for either or both
processors with the Mix 1 and Mix 2
knobs.
• Change effect routings with the Routing
button.

Selecting Effects

The MX200 features 16 classic Lexicon
reverb algorithms, six types of delay, eight
modulated/pitch effects, and two dbx
dynamics algorithms.
To select an effect, press the P1 or P2
Effect Select buttons up or down.
