HPFX FRONT PANEL CONTROLS & INDICATORS
f f
MICROPHONE LEVEL
The Mic Level controls provide for up to 56dB of gain for each microphone’s signal, to get it up
to a line level for internal processing. It is then sent to the headphone amp section and mixed
with the line level stereo mix input signal.
POWER LIGHT
The Power LED indicator is lit whenever the HPFX is receiving sufficient and stable power
from its external supply.
MICROPHONE EFFECTS BLEND
The Effects Blend controls adjust the amount of each microphone’s signal that is sent to the
digital effects section, similar to the effects send section of a mixer.
DIGITAL EFFECTS SELECT
This encoder lets you select any one of 16 digital effects, to be applied to the microphones
signal and mixed into the headphone outputs and the rear panel effects output jack. The
effects available include: 4- discrete delay (slapback), 4- echo, 5- reverberation, and 3- special
effects (flangers, choruses, and discrete). They are nominally tailored to vocal use (sweetening
an thickening), but they can be adjusted over a wide range, by judicious use of the Effects
Blend and Parameter Adjust controls.
