Lexicon ALEX - Manual de usuario

The Alex Digital Effects Processor and Reﬂex

Dynamic MIDI®Reverberator put Lexicon’s leg-

endary digital reverb and effects processing into

two remarkably affordable packages. Both are full

rack devices with a multi-character LED display,

and full remote control of program change and

bypass via standard footswitches. In addition,

Reﬂex features Lexicon’s incredible Dynamic

MIDI®control. Alex and Reﬂex have 16 phe-

nomenal presets, 3 adjustable parameters (giving

you over 4,000 effects combinations), plus another

16 user registers (128 in Reﬂex) for storing your

own unique sounds. Like our classic LXP family

of processors, Alex and Reﬂex have stereo in and

out 1⁄4 in jacks., and can create real stereo effects,

such as panned echoes, even from a mono source.

The Effects

Alex and Reﬂex offer 16 presets which cover a

wide range of musically useful effects. Among

these presets are a wide range of fantastic reverbs

including: halls, rooms, plates, gates, and inverse

room. Both feature rich multi-voice chorusing,

ﬂanging, straight echoes, and stereo multi-tap

delays. In addition, Reﬂex offers a unique res-

onator algorithm, and its reverb algorithms fea-

ture a randomizer to reduce coloration and

improve the character of long reverb tails, plus

early reﬂection effects.

Editing and customizing effects is a breeze.

Three adjustable parameters are available for

each preset. These are labeled decay, delay and fx

lvl. To edit the effects, simply press the parameter

button to indicate which one you wish to change,

and turn the Value knob until you’ve found the

setting that works best for you.

Reflex incorporates a special Advanced

Programming mode, which provides editing

capabilities for additional parameters within the

Reﬂex effects – all from the front panel. A para-

meter chart is included with Reﬂex to make edit-

ing simple and straightforward. This allows you

to access the deeper portions of the algorithm,

and tailor the sounds to your speciﬁc needs. You

can also edit Reﬂex effects with an external MIDI

device, such as the Lexicon MRC (MIDI Remote

Controller). Reﬂex is compatible with existing

LXP-1 MIDI editing systems like Mark of the

Unicorn’s Unisyn™and TB Systems’ Soft MC™.

We’ve given you plenty of user registers for

storing your customized sounds – 16 in Alex and

128 in Reﬂex. These registers can be arranged in

any order you like, so you can arrange your effects

sequentially to match your set list.

Remote Control

Having all of these great sounds at such a low

price is wonderful. But you also need to be able to

access the sounds quickly and easily to make a

processor useful on stage. So with Alex and

Reﬂex, we decided to make the remote control as

simple as could be.

Using standard footswitches, you can bypass

the unit for those moments when you want to

Alex Digital Effects Processor

Reﬂex Dynamic MIDI®Reverberator

play dry. You can also use a footswitch to send a

program change, allowing you to step through

your effects.

Furthermore, you can create register chains-

groups of registers which loop around to match a

set list or song sections. This kind of customiza-

tion is essential for making Alex, or Reﬂex, your

own personal effects processor.

With Reflex, the control possibilities

increase dramatically, thanks to the addition of

Dynamic MIDI. Using external controllers, such

as a standard MIDI footpedal or the Lexicon

MRC, you can easily access all of the functional-

ity within Reﬂex. Delay tempos can be slaved to

MIDI, and we’ve also included MIDI Bulk Data

Dumps for extended ﬂexibility and convenience.

Lexicon’s Dynamic MIDI provides dramatic

control over effects parameters from any MIDI

controller, such as mod wheels, sliders, etc. Up to

four MIDI patches can be created per effect,

allowing you to breathe life into your effects.

Dynamic MIDI allows exceptionally expressive

performance and control over your effects.

Something For

Everyone

Because of their remarkable sound quality, Alex

and Reﬂex have something to offer virtually

everyone, from guitar players, to keyboardists, to

vocalists, or to small studios who have to do all of

the above – and then some.

Many of the presets have been optimized for

certain instruments or sounds, but feel free to

experiment. Great things can happen when you

take an alternative route, and with Alex and

Reﬂex you can be assured that you have the ﬂex-

ibility to create something new and different.

Check out Alex and Reﬂex today. When

you hear the difference that Lexicon processing

makes, you’ll settle for nothing less than the best.

an intimate club. Exclusive Randomizer feature (Reﬂex

only) reduces coloration and enhances long reverb tails,

with dual early reﬂections for added realism.

Inverse – Similar to gated reverb, except that the

reverberation envelope is sharply tilted to provide a long

rising attack, followed by a sharp cutoff. Gate Provides a

very dense ﬁeld with a sudden cutoff, rather than the

smoothly decaying envelope normally associated with

reverberation.

Plate – All of the sonic traits of a metal plate. The pre-

sets provide classic plate effects for drums and other percus-

sive instruments, as well as for a variety of broadband audio

sources.

Flanger – A stereo ﬂange that can be used to create

different effects from left and right outputs. Individual

delays of as much as 1 second, with separate feedback con-

trols are provided, as well as rate and shape controls for the

ﬂange (“feedback” and “shape” available on Reﬂex only).

Chorus – 6-voice stereo chorus with both chorusing

and delay effects. Lets you create single recirculating echo

effects and slap echoes, or make use of longer delays (1.5

seconds). In Reﬂex, delay times can be driven by MIDI.

Single-Tap – A recirculating echo to 1.5 seconds.

Multi-Taps – A 4-tap bouncing delay with the bounce

going back and forth between the left and right outputs.

Reﬂex allows delay times to be driven by MIDI.

Resonator (Reﬂex only) – Simulates the acoustic

effects of multi-stringed instruments. A series of resonators

tuned to a chromatic scale is provided, with controls for

tuning and damping.
