Adjusting Knobs

To make editing in MX-Edit easy and intu-

itive, there are three ways to adjust knobs

in MX-Edit:

Mouse - Circular

Place the cursor at the outer (shadowed)

edge of a knob, then click and hold the left

mouse button. The white indicator line on

the knob jumps to the mouse cursor’s posi-

tion, and follows the cursor as it moves

around the circumference of the knob. To

make fine adjustments, continue to hold

the left mouse button down and move the

cursor away from the knob; the white line

still follows the cursor, no matter how far

away it is from the knob.

Mouse – Up / Down

Move the mouse cursor to the center of a

knob; the knob is highlighted, and the cur-

sor changes to a double-headed arrow,

pointing up and down. Click and hold the

left mouse button, causing the cursor to

disappear. Move the mouse up to turn the

knob higher, or move the mouse down to

turn the knob lower. For very fast edits,

press and hold the Ctrl key on your com-

puter keyboard while moving the mouse;

this multiplies the adjusted value by a fac-

tor of 10.

Arrow Keys

Highlight, then left-click on a knob to select

it. Use the up (or right) arrow key to turn

the knob higher and increase the value;

use the down (or left) arrow key to turn the

knob lower, decreasing the value. This is a

very effective method for making small

adjustments to fine-tune your settings. For

faster modifications, press and hold the

Ctrl key on your computer keyboard while

pressing an arrow key to multiply each

adjustment by a factor of 10.

Tempo

If one of the MX200’s six delays is select-

ed, the Tempo button in that processor

becomes active, and begins to flash at the

rate displayed above the Time Range

knob. The tempo value is shown in mil-

liseconds (ms), and a quarter-note appears

next to the displayed tempo. When the

Time Range parameter is adjusted, exact

divisions of time in milliseconds relative to

the flashing Tempo rate will cause a note

value to be displayed next to the time, e.g.

16th note, dotted-8th note, etc. The Tempo

button will continue to flash at the originally

selected tempo, but the delay taps will

occur at the rate displayed in the Time

Range value.

To change the tempo value, simply place

the mouse cursor over the Tempo button,

and left-click twice to tap the tempo, just as

you would on the MX200 front panel. The

Tempo buttons on MX200 and in the

Program Editor window now flash at the

new tempo.

If something other than one of the six

delays is loaded in the processor, the

Tempo button is grayed out and inactive.

Bypass

To engage the Bypass button (and turn off

the selected effect), place the mouse cur-

sor over the Bypass button, and left-click

to bypass that processor. Note that the

Bypass buttons on both the MX200 front

panel and the Program Editor illuminate to

indicate the selected processor is

bypassed.

Program Name

To create or change a program’s name,

simply left click once anywhere in the

Program Name field. The program name

will be highlighted; type the new name into

the Title Bar. The program name in the

Header area will not change until the pro-

gram has been saved.
