Select Sound Banks
LPX has 11 Banks (1-9, A, and B), which you select with the Gear Shift knob. Each Bank has
five patches (1-5), also called presets, that you select with the 5-way Pickup Selector/Patch
Selector. You can freely save, load, and edit patches with the included LPX Editor software.
For example, LPX could have 55 basic pickup patches, 55 patches with effects, some
patches with effects and some without, etc. To select a Bank:
1. Set the silver tog-pot to the middle position.
2. Rotate the Gear Shift knob to select a Bank. The knob’s color-coded readout shows the
Bank number or letter. Banks are:
Yellow Banks (pickups only)
1 = LPX, 2 = single-coil , 3 = humbucker, 4 = piezo (acoustic Bank)
Blue Banks (single effect s)
5 = modulation, 6 = echo (delay), 7 = reverb
Red Banks (multieffects)
8 = distortion, 9 = distortion leads, A and B = multieffects sounds
Select Patches within a Bank
The 5-way Pickup Selector/Patch Selector selects patches within a Bank. Position 1 is
closest to the neck, position 5 to the bridge. The following chart lists the factory patch set.
