Program Descriptions
COMPRESSOR
The compressor in the MPX 200 is a stand-alone control
that modulates the level feeding the other active
effect(s). It has no effect on the dry signal coming out of
the Mix control (or the Bypass signal when Bypass Mode is
set to Dry). Compression on a dry signal is obtained by
using a Delay/Echo algorithm with delay times set to 0.
Thus, the Mix control must be set to 100% for this to work
properly (this is the default setting when Program Load is
set to Program).
Programs 107, 108 and 109 use a Parallel Reverb-Delay
algorithm to obtain compression on both a dry and wet
signal. To use this program, observe the following:
• Keep the MPX 200 Mix set to 100% (the default set-
ting when Program Load is set to Program). The
dry signal will be obtained as a compressed
"delayed" echo with the delay time set to 0.
• Adjust the Reverb level by changing the Balance
parameter between full left (0%) and about 40%.
(Typical values should be between 5% and 10%.)
