I am on the hunt for a new processor and that is one that I am considering. Any users out there?
 
it's ok. check out some other boxes first before you buy it.
 
Lexi MPX500

I really like my MPX500, and I think if you are going for a studio processor (for use on everything...vocals/drums/bass/guitar/etc...) Lexicon products outshine all others. However, if you have the money, look at one of the PCM units instead. Those are used in the professional studio domain and you can hear a difference. Either way, stick with Lexicon (over T.C., etc..).

Try to find and old Yamaha REV5 OR REV 7,I have all 3 and the 500 lexicon is pretty good but at the bottom of that list. Cost is about the same,Jim
 
I love mine too

So "silent" when needed and so "punchy" when needed, compared to my other gears (Alesis Quadraverb, BOSS SE70, ...) .

It is a real professional tool at semi-pro price !
You'll be disappointed only if you're looking to reproduce the precise ambience of your nearest cathedral ... due to limited number of editing parameters !
But in most cases, no one is looking to reproduce the exact ambience of a given place...

Go for it if it'sin your budget.

You can also buy the upgrade chip for the MPX500 which will add compression. Not too many Multi-FX have compression. As much as I like the unit, I prefer my Ensoniq DP Pro's over it, but I do like to have a bit of variety.
 
I think it's great! I use it and the MPX1 and they are both clean and clear :)
 
Hey fuast54,

I have ben kind of looking at both the 500 and the 1 (I have not auditioned them yet).

Is the mpx1 worth the extra money over the mpx500.

Peace
Joe
