USING THE SGX LT WITH AN X-11 Foot Controller or X-15 ULTRAFOOT

Using the ART X-11 with the SGX LT is very simple. Connect a MIDI cable from the

MIDI out of the X-11 to the MIDI in of the SGX LT. Select a preset on the X-11,

the corrosponding preset on the SGX LT will initially be one less than the X-11

(Preset 1 on the X-11 recalls preset 00 on the SGX LT). Reprogram the SGX LT as

described in Appendix B or Example 2 reprinted below for your own sequence of

presets.

You do not need to reprogram the X-15 ULTRAFOOT for use with the SGX LT. All

programming and setup is done with the SGX LT. Only preset recall may be done
with the X-15 and the SGX LT.
The Expression pedals have no effect on the preset

effect parameters. You may use the X-15's Bypass Jack and a guitar cable hooked

up to the Remote jack of the SGX LT to bypass the SGX LT. Connect a MIDI cable

from the MIDI out of the X-11 to the MIDI in of the SGX LT. Select a preset on

the X-15, the corrosponding preset on the SGX LT will initially be one less than

the X-15 (Preset 1 on the X-15 recalls preset 00 on the SGX LT). Reprogram the

SGX LT as described in Appendix B or Example 2 reprinted below for your own

sequence of presets.

EXAMPLE 2:

Editing the MPT with a keyboard or external controller.

When used with a keyboard or other device such as the ART X-11 or X-15 ULTAFOOT

capable of sending MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE messages, MPT editing is simplified. We

will edit the MPT so when MIDI numbers 2 and 3, are received, presets 55 and Y4

will be recalled. It is assumed that the SGX LT has not had its MPT edited.

The keyboard or MIDI controller MIDI OUT must be connected to the SGX LT MIDI IN

jack. The MIDI on the SGX LT must be set to the same channel the keyboard will be

sending messages on, or the SGX LT MIDI must be set to [AL.] for OMNI mode.

Press and hold MIDI, then press BYPASS. The display will show [0.0] with the

decimal point blinking indicating that you are in MPT edit mode, this left

decimal point means that the MIDI PROGRAM number being displayed.

Select a patch on the keyboard so [0.2] appears in the display. This may not be

sound 2 or patch 2 on the keyboard. Different companies number their presets in a

variety of ways. The patch causing [0.2] to appear in the display is usually the

first or second patch of the lowest numbered bank if the keyboard or controller

has banks of patches.

*-Press and release BYPASS. The display shows [02.] to indicating MIDI number 2

recalls PRESET 2.

*-Press and hold UP until [55.] appears in the display. Now MIDI number 2 will

recall PRESET 55.

-To program the rest of the entries, you do not need to switch back to the MIDI

number. You can let the unit remain showing the PRESET number. (When you select

your keyboard or foot controller preset, you automatically recall the existing

SGX LT preset.)

*-Select the next patch on the keyboard. The display will show [03.] to indicate

that it recalls PRESET 4.

*-Press and hold the UP button until [Y4.] appears in the display. Now the last

patch number activated will recall PRESET Y4.
