Lexicon reverb with true stereo, 24-bit dual-channel processing plus balanced analog and S/PDIF digital I/O

September 28, 1999 -- Lexicon, Inc. introduces the MPX 500, a true stereo 24-bit dual-channel processor with balanced analog and S/PDIF digital I/O. Powered by Lexicon's proprietary Lexichip™, the MPX 500 has 240 presets with classic, true stereo reverb programs such as Ambience, Plate, Chamber and Inverse, as well as Tremolo, Rotary, Chorus, Flange, Pitch, Detune, 5.5 second Delay and Echo. Dual-channel processing allows control of completely independent effects on the left and right channels.

Four dedicated front panel knobs permit adjustment of four pages of displayed effect parameters. An easy Learn mode allows MIDI patching of front panel controls. In addition, tempo-controlled delays lock to Tap or MIDI clock, and Tap tempos can be controlled by audio input, the front panel Tap button, footswitch, external MIDI controller or MIDI Program Change. Other features include a graphics display with metering and tempo displays, a software-selectable MIDI OUT/THRU port, pushbutton or footswitch selection of dry or muted audio output, and a built-in power supply.
