The MX200 is equipped with 99 Factory

programs that combine the 32 reverbs and

effects to cover a wide range of applica-

tions. Additionally, there are 99 User pro-

gram locations in which to store your own

reverb and effects combinations. These

are identical to the Factory programs until

you change them.

Loading Programs

To load a program:

1. Choose a program by rotating the

Program Select knob. The selected

program number flashes in the Program

Display until loaded. A small LED dot

appears in the lower right portion of the

Program Display if a User program is

selected.

2. Press the Program Select knob to

load the program.

If you would like the programs to be loaded

automatically as they are changed with the

Program Select knob, you can enable the

AutoLoad function (see page 23 for more

information).

Editing Programs

After selecting a Factory or User program,

you may find that it needs some modifica-

tion for a particular application or use. This

may include changing one of the three

Parameter knobs on each processor,

changing the Mix 1 or Mix 2 settings, alter-

ing the Routing, changing the delay

Tempo or engaging one of the Bypass

buttons. When any of the Parameter or

Mix knobs are used, a numerical value for

that parameter will briefly appear in the

Program Display while the knob is being

turned. A small LED next to the knob will

illuminate, denoting a change from the

saved value, and the Store button will

light, indicating that the loaded program

has been modified. To retain these

changes, you must store them to a User

program location (see Storing Programs).

Knob and button LEDs are green for

Processor 1, and red for Processor 2, to

correspond with their respective LED color

in the Active Reverb/Effects Matrix.

Either Factory or User programs may be

edited, but they may only be stored to a

User program location.

The Parameter knobs have different func-

tions for each reverb and effect. For

detailed descriptions of what each knob

does, refer to the Effects Descriptions

section.

To edit a program:

1. Load a program using the Program

Select knob.

2. Make any of the following adjustments

or changes:

• Select effects with either or both

Effect Select buttons.

Delay, Decay, or Variation knobs.
