FlexFX
The FlexFx architecture in the MP26 is more powerful than
typical effect insert solutions. The architecture includes the
FlexFx Bus, an auxiliary bus routed to the FlexFX Loop which
includes two independent effects inserts. Any combination of
PGM 1-4 and Mic 1-2 may be routed to the FlexFX Bus. Any
combination of internal digital, external analog and USB effects
may be applied within the FlexFX Loop. It is possible to cue
and meter the FlexFX Loop return. You can bypass the entire
FlexFX Loop using a single button to instantly punch in and out
a combination of effects. The final FlexFX Output Level controls
the level of the FlexFX audio in the Main Mix. The flexibility of
the FlexFX architecture makes it a very powerful tool. So, it is
important to take some time to understand FlexFX signal rout-
ing and controls.
