Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the LXP-5 Effects Processing Module!
You are about to experience superb sound quality, a full range of pitch
shifting, delay and reverb effects, fast intuitive editing of preset sounds, and
an industry-leading MIDI implementation.

The LXP-5 offers a rich and distinctive palette of special effects, including
128 programs to get you started — 64 preset effects programs and an
additional 64 programs stored in RAM user memory locations. Each
program has up to five variable parameters that you can adjust for subtle or
dramatic changes in the program’s sound, and you can store as many as 128
customized programs in user memory. All of the LXP-5 functions are
accessible from the front panel, or via MIDI, providing truly world-class
flexibility and control. From pitch shifting to stereo delays and flanging, the
LXP-5 delivers superior performance. Whether you are a producer, engi-
neer, or musician—whether you work on stage or in the studio—the LXP-5
will quickly become an indispensible part of your sound.

We’re confident you’ll find that the LXP-5’s unique combination of state-of-
the-art sound and extraordinary versatility is exactly what you’re looking for.
A  Quick Reference  card provides the basics of operation in a compact
format to get you up and running as quickly as possible — but to make sure
you don’t miss out on anything, we’d like you to read this manual. It provides
a thorough explanation of both front panel and MIDI operation, program
descriptions, and complete MIDI Implementation data — all the information
you need to access the full power of the LXP-5.
