Lexicon MPX ???

Post by P Perry »

I'm trying out a new Lexicon MPX 100. Just wondering if anybody uses one of these and could share some pointers? Thanks.

I'm using one and I really like the way it sounds. It's a bit awkward to program, though, because there's no display on it. I have just 3 or 4 patches in the user bank and that's all I use. I use the Mix control and the patch selection knob on stage, and don't touch the others.

One of the best features is the headphone jack. Try playing your steel with phones on and you wont want to play thru a amp again. Wish I could get that sound out of my Nash 400.

Phil, The MPX100 has the lexi chip in it,
that chip is renowned for its reverb.
For the money there is nothing out there
that competes with that reverb, plus the other effects are great.
The down side with it , I wish it had the MPX 500 Patches with the screen, instead of
the nobs, but thats why its cheaper, right!
For the money, the verbs can't be touched.

That dang wall wart also!
