Using the MX500 as a Hardware Plug-In
temPo
If one of the MX500's delays is selected, the Tempo button in that processor becomes
active, and begins to flash at the Tempo rate. The tempo value is shown in milliseconds
(ms) or beats per minute (bpm). (You can switch between ms and bpm via the Tempo
Display option in the System Menu.) When the Delay Time parameter is adjusted, the
Tempo button will continue to flash at the originally selected tempo, but the delay
taps will occur at the rate displayed in the Delay Time value.
To change the tempo value, simply place the mouse cursor over the Tempo button,
and left-click twice to tap the tempo, just as you would on the MX500 front panel. The
Tempo buttons on the MX500 and in the Program Editor window now flash at the
new tempo.
If a non-delay effect is loaded in the processor, the Tempo button is dimmed and
inactive.

To engage the Bypass button (and turn off the selected effect), place the mouse cur-
sor over the Bypass button, and left-click to bypass that processor.
