Setting Audio Levels - Lexicon MPX 110 - REV 1 Manual

Getting Started

SETTING AUDIO LEVELS

1. Begin with the Input knob set to the 9 o'clock
position.
2. Set the instrument or effects sends to a modest
output level.
3. Begin playing or sending audio to the MPX 110. The
Level LEDs should light green. If the Clip LEDs light
red, reduce the output level of the instrument or
effects sends until the Clip LEDs do not light during
the loudest passages.
4. Continue to play or send audio to the MPX 110.
Gradually increase the Input knob setting until the
Clip LEDs light red on the loudest passages.
5. Set the Mix knob to Dry.
6. Set the Output knob to the desired level.
1-10
7. If utilizing console sends and returns, set the Mix
knob to Wet. If utilizing an instrument amplifier, set
the Mix knob to the 12 o'clock position.
The Level LEDs do not light when the incoming signal is
more than 30dB below overload. The Clip LEDs light red
when the signal approaches overload (-2.5dB). When an
acceptable signal is present, the Level LEDs light green
almost continuously and the Clip LEDs flash red on the
loudest passages.
Note:
As with all audio products, it is good practice to first
power on all outboard equipment, then the mixer,
then the speakers.
