Programs 100-149 are designed to be used with the MPX G2
connected to a guitar amp with no effects loop.
Front Panel
100 Vintage Rig
A collection of classic stomp boxes just waiting to be activated. Press Gain for a
Screamer, Effect 1 for a UniVybe, Effect 2 for a Wah and Chorus for a Flanger. The MPX
R1 Toe Switch activates pedal control of volume or wah.
101 Pdl Octaves
Use a pedal to create outrageous octave sweeps. A/B changes the direction of the
sweep. A=octave up, B=octave down. Check out the Glide parameter in the Soft Row.
When it's set to Off, the pedal produces a chromatic glissando instead of a continuous
glide.
102 TechnoChords
Play a chord and let it ring out. Random tones ring out into delay and reverb. A/B changes
the mix of the effect so that more of the original signal can be heard. The MPX R1 Toe
Switch gives you pedal control of volume or of volume with a sweep filter scale.
103 Cordovox
This program simulates the sound of a Cordovox cabinet — a single speaker with a
rotating baffle that produces a swirling stereo vibe. The Gain effect is clean analog Tone
that will boost your amp a bit so when you dig in you get some grit but, as you play lighter,
or switch to less powerful pickups, you get cleaner sounds. A/B controls fast and slow
speeds of the rotating baffle. The MPX R1 pedal controls volume, the Toe Switch turns
the pedal On and Off.
104 Analog Echo
This program produces sounds with many of the characteristics of vintage analog echo
effects — including the tendency to "run away" if you push the feedback too hard. If you've
ever played around with an old tape echo, you'll recognize this sound. This key to this
effect is putting the analog Gain block inside the delay feedback loop. The signal is
recirculated through the analog section every time the delay repeats. The result is a literal
analog echo. A chorus is inserted in the feedback loop as well.
105 Wah & Uni
A great rig with Wah, UniVybe and Screamer tweaked to drive a guitar amp running with
lots of gain. Use the MPX R1 Toe Switch to swap the Wah with the UniVybe. While the
UniVybe is active, the pedal is an amp input volume control. The Screamer overdrive is
bypassed when the program loads — press Gain to give your amp a kick. Tap sets the
echo rhythm.
Turn Input to 2 o'clock.
The Output control is unnecessary
when the MPX G2 is used with an amp
that doesn't have an effects loop.
