LEXICON LXP-15 (02) PDF Document

To load a preset on the LEXICON LXP-15, follow these steps:

1. Use the PAGE knob to select “Setup”.

2. Press the button directly beneath “Preset” on the display.

3. Use the ADJUST knob to scroll through and sequentially load the 128 preset programs.

Pressing the button directly beneath “Pre scan” on the display allows you to scroll through the presets without loading them. If you use this method of selection, press the button directly beneath “Load” on the display to load any displayed preset.

The LEXICON LXP-15 is factory-loaded with 128 preset programs grouped as follows:

Presets 1-78: General purpose

Presets 79-86: Guitar or bass

Presets 87-102: Guitar or keyboards

Presets 103-117: Keyboards

Presets 118-128: Special effects

Note: Presets 17, 41, 42 and 53-127 have parameters patched for real-time control.

The mix control in all factory presets is set to 100% Wet. If you are using an instrument plugged directly into the unit, you will want to adjust the wet/dry mix control.

Once you have loaded a preset, follow these steps:

1. Turn the PAGE knob to select one of the six parameter pages (Delay, Pitch/EQ, Reverb, Level, Mod or Alg). Each page displays a set of parameters related to the current setup.

2. Press the button directly beneath a displayed parameter to select it for adjustment.

3. Turn the ADJUST knob. This will display the full name of the selected parameter and its current value. The value will change as you continue to turn ADJUST.

Note: The screen will return to its normal 5-parameter display if you select another parameter, or if 2 seconds pass without further parameter adjustment.

Pressing VIEW will display the parameters along with their current settings.

The setup name will be marked with an asterisk (*) to indicate that the setup has been modified since it was last stored.

Patching involves the following steps:

1. Turn the PAGE knob to select one of the four “Patch” positions. Select “Src” and use ADJUST to select the desired controller.

2. Select “Dest” and use ADJUST to select the parameter you want to control.

3. Select “Scale” and use ADJUST to select the control range for the Destination. As the Source controller is moved from min to max, positive scaling increases (negative scaling decreases) Destination values.

4. Select “Thresh n” and use ADJUST to set the Source controller’s position relative to the initial Destination value. (For most applications, you can simply leave Threshold set to 0.)

1. Turn the PAGE knob to select “Name.” The current setup name will appear in the upper right of the display with the first character of the name underlined.

2. Turning the ADJUST knob will cause the underlined character to be replaced with the first letter of the name you want. The ADJUST knob dials sequentially through a list of alphanumeric characters in the following order: (space), 0-9, A-Z, a-z, and an assortment of standard symbols.

3. Pressing the buttons under “<Char” and “Char>” will step the underline cursor to the left and right, allowing you to choose the characters you want to change.

1. Turn the PAGE knob to select “Store.”

2. Press the button directly beneath “Reg #” on the display.

3. Turn the ADJUST knob to select a register number between 1-128. (Make sure it’s one whose contents you don’t mind overwriting.)

4. When the display shows the register number you want, press the button directly beneath “Store.” The display will indicate successful storage.

The LEXICON LXP-15 will not perform a store instruction if “Memory Protect” is enabled. This function is accessed by turning the PAGE knob to “Sys”, pressing the button directly beneath “Mem Prot” and using the ADJUST knob to select ON or OFF.

1. Turn the PAGE knob to select “Setup.”

2. Press the button directly beneath “Registr” on the display.

3. Turn the ADJUST knob to select the register number you want. The setup is automatically recalled.

Pressing the button directly beneath “Reg scan” on the display allows you to scroll through the registers without loading them. If you use this method of selection, press the button directly beneath “Load” on the display to load any displayed setup.
