Eff ects Processor. Designed with both live sound reinforcement and home recording in mind, MX200 features the deep, rich
reverb and eff ects algorithms that built the Lexicon legend, and adds increased versatility with specialty eff ects and dbx® dynam-

SPLIT PERSONALITY
LIVE OPERATION
 ose using the MX200 in the live arena will appreciate
its intuitive front panel layout, with an Active Reverb/
Eff ects Matrix that constantly displays which two of the
32 available eff ects are active, and all functions available
within a single button-push turn of a knob. Dual
independent processor control areas with dedicated
Eff ects Select, Tempo, Bypass and three parameter control
knobs provide instant access with precise and meaningful
control over the most critical parameters for the selected
eff ect. Parameter change LEDs illuminate to indicate any
change from the 99 meticulously crafted Factory or 99
User Programs. Choose from fi ve digitally-recorded audio
samples to Audition the selected eff ects.
STUDIO OPERATION
In the studio, advances in computer-based recording
have led many engineers to value the instant control and
heads-up use of plug-in eff ects – but many still yearn for
the rich, complex sound found in a dedicated hardware
processor. Now, Lexicon provides a USB interface with
intuitive cross-platform VST® and Audio Unit plug-in
windows, allowing the MX200 to function as a “hardware
plug-in” – recognized and functioning within VST and
Audio Units-compatible DAWs as a plug-in eff ect, but still
operating as a dedicated hardware unit.  is unique USB
plug-in feature allows users to easily control the MX200
in their computer-based recordings within the graphical
interface that appears in the recording application like a
plug-in, with full automation and recall features. Now
software-based recording engineers can stay focused on
the heart of their studio
–
the application window of their
recording software. A powerful cross-platform Editor/Li-
brarian software package is included as well. MX-Edit™
lets you create, edit, compare, save and load reverb and
eff ects programs for use with your MX200 on your Mac®
or Windows® XP computer.
Included VST® and Audio UnitPlug-in Interfaces allow
MX200 to connect to Recording Software via USB as a
Hardware Plug-In.
Dual Independent Controls for each Processor.
Active Reverb/Eff ects Matrix displays
which two eff ects are active at all times.
