a program was opened from). Double-click the program to load it.

The MX-Edit Program Editor lets you quickly and easily view, compare and edit any
program stored in the MX500, or programs saved to your computer.
MX-Edit gives you all the same control and functionality as the MX500 front panel,
with the exception of
Input
control and
System
functions.
All changes that you make in the active Program Editor window are reflected in real-
time on the MX500. MX-Edit and the MX500 are fully interactive, so any changes made
on the MX500’s front panel are reflected in real-time in the MX-Edit Program Editor
window as well.
When you open a program, the MX-Edit Program Editor is updated with the selected
program’s name in the Program Name field, and you're prompted to save any previous
edits. The settings of the loaded program are reflected in the Parameter knobs and but-
tons, and are loaded into the MX500 hardware.
