The MPX 1 employs two separate DSP processors: our proprietary
LexiChip ® to deliver world-class stereo Reverb and Ambience
algorithms and a separate DSP chip to create additional effects. The
result is uncompromised Lexicon stereo reverb and ambience
®
effects that are available all the time, whether running alone or in
conjunction with Chorus, Delay, EQ, Modulation, or Pitch effects.
Many "multi-effect" processors don't meet this basic requirement.
The MPX 1 not only meets this standard expectation, but has
enough processing power remaining to run even more effects.
Instant Access
Six effect types in the MPX 1 are always accessible via dedicated,
back-lit buttons on the front panel. Each effect "block" is
independent, with its own Bypass, Level, and Mix controls. The audio
path through each effect is in stereo. Selecting new effects for
programs is simple, with an arsenal of effects for each block
(56 total) just a button push away.
Quick and Easy Program Fine-Tuning
The MPX 1 comes loaded with 200 carefully crafted presets that
reflect its versatility. Fine-tuning presets to match music or
soundtracks is quick and simple thanks to pushbutton access to a
Soft Row that holds the most useful parameter combinations for
each program. Creating or restructuring programs is also easily
accomplished with an Edit Mode that provides an extensive pool of
effect parameters.
On-Board Help
The MPX 1 offers a built-in help feature to provide guidance through
all front panel controls. Pressing and holding any button will display
a message that explains its function without executing its action.
