The MPX G2 has a database sorting function which allows you to sort and search
for programs in various categories. This is a great timesaver when you're looking
specifically for guitar effects, or EQ effects, or for EQ effects for guitar. When
shipped, the DataBase sorting option is set to "Sort by number", allowing you to
use the knob to scroll through all of the 300 programs in numerical order in
Program mode. (The < and > buttons will jump you forward and back ten
programs at a time. Simultaneously pressing < and > jumps from 1 to 251 or from
251 to 1.)
You can select other sorting criteria in Program mode by pressing Options. The
Options LED will blink and the display will show:
Sort programs
by number
Use the knob or the < and > buttons to select any of the main sorting options listed
below:
Press Options again to return to Program mode with the database sorted to
show only those programs that fit the criteria you've selected. If you select
"name", the knob will scroll you through all 250 programs in alphabetical order
(The < and > buttons will jump you forward and back through letters of the
alphabet.)
If you select any sorting option other than sort by name or number, the displayed
selection of programs will be limited to those which fit the category. — We've
made sure that all 250 of the factory programs are tagged for a variety of
appropriate sorting options, so you'll find plenty to play with in each category.
NOTE: MPX G2 programs have been designed for specific applications.
Stand alone programs may not sound right if listened to through a guitar
amp and vice versa.
When you select guitar style, effect type or app type as an option and return to
Program mode, the knob will scroll through the programs in the first of the
categories listed in parenthesis above. The < and > buttons will jump to the next
sorting category.
Assigning guitar style, effect and app types to programs is done in a database
menu in Edit Mode.
