Program Editor appears, with the selected
program’s name in the Title Bar and
Program Name field. The program settings
are also reflected in the Parameter knobs
and buttons in the Program Editor window.
The selected program is now loaded in
your MX200 as well, and can be previewed
using the
Audition
button on the MX200’s
front panel. Any changes made in the MX-
Edit Program Editor window will also occur
simultaneously on the MX200 hardware.
The MX-Edit
TM
Library
The MX-Edit Library contains the 99
Factory and 99 User programs that are
currently loaded in your MX200. When you
first open MX-Edit, it communicates via
USB (or MIDI) with the MX200 hardware,
and populates the Library with all the infor-
mation about each of the Factory and User
programs stored in MX200’s physical
memory.
To view programs in the Library window,
double-click on the MX200 icon in the
upper left corner, then double-click the
Factory or User icon to expand the Library
and see the Factory or User program lists.
The Factory list is always the same, as
Factory programs cannot be overwritten;
the User program list represents the 99
User programs currently saved in your
MX200 hardware.

to create your own program from scratch. It
