Basic Operation; Overview - Lexicon Vortex Manual De Uso

Overview

Vortex provides a rich set of performance
and programming features — all of which are
simple and straightforward. Effect selection,
editing, store, and morph functions are easily
accomplished with dedicated knobs and but-
tons.
In Vortex, the tedious process of entering
delay times which have to be recalculated for
every tempo change is replaced by simple
rhythm controls.The unique combination of
the front panel TAP and ECHO÷ controls
makes it easy to set up precise echo rhythms
— and to synchronize the echo rhythms of
every effect to any tempo — on the fly!

Audio Morphing™ gives you unprec-
edented real-time control of parameter val-
ues, effects ordering and control routing.
While the dynamically changing sounds can
range from subtle to extreme, you control
morphing with simply a button push or a
pedal sweep.
An expression pedal can be assigned to
control any one of fourteen parameters in
each effect with a single button push (and
pedal assignments can be stored with your
effects.)

Basic Operation

A dual footswitch, provided with your unit,
allows you to bypass effects, step through
your registers, or cycle through chains of
effects.
Each of these functions is described in
detail in this section.
