Lexicon MPX G2 - Manual (Page 26)

1-13
Product Overview
The MPX G2 Main Outputs are set to stereo at the factory. When connecting the
MPX G2 to an external device with a mono input (such as a mono effects loop
return), set the Main Outputs for mono as follows:
1.Press System twice. The display will show System select: Audio.
2.Press > to select Audio OutputMode.
3.Turn the knob to change the setting from Stereo to Mono.
4.Press Program to return to Program mode.
The MPX G2 is factory set to produce unity gain when the front panel Input and
Output controls are set to 2 o’clock, and the Input Clip and Aux In Clip LEDs only
come on briefly during your very loudest playing (if at all). (See Quick Start earlier
in this chapter for detailed instructions on setting levels.)
Soft Sat is a built-in analog limiter that precedes the A/D converters in the MPX
G2. If the source to the MPX G2 is "hot", you can use Soft Sat to reduce the
harshness caused by overloading the A/D converters. Press System, select the
Audio menu, then select Soft Sat to turn the limiter On or Off.
The green Level LED indicates signal presence (above -30dB) at either the front
or rear panel guitar inputs. The red Clip LED indicates overload at either of these
inputs, or overload of any effect in the pre-gain path.
The Aux In LED indicates signal presence at either of the two Insert Return
jacks. The Aux In — Clip LED indicates overload of either of the Insert Returns,
or overload of any effect in the post-gain path.
