MPX 550
4-17
STEREO STAGE
Stereo Stage provides stereo reverb while preserving the
dry signal. To use this program, note the following:
• Use the MPX 550 in line between the mixer and
house amplifiers - not as an effect mixed back into
the main left and right channels on the mixer.
• Pan the input channels on the mixer fully to each
musician’s side of the stage.
• Keep the Mix parameter set to 50% (the default
Program Load Mode setting).
• Adjust reverb level by setting the Efx Bal parameter
between 100:0% (full left) and 60:40%.
• The ideal setting for the Width parameter depends
on the distance between the speakers at each side of
the stage. The program loads with an assumed
spacing of about 20 feet, with an adjustment range
of 10 to 50 feet. The width setting assumes that
most audience members are seated within about 30
degrees to either side of the stage centerline. If
audience members are seated further to the sides of
the stage, the setting can be increased. Otherwise, it
should be kept as low as possible.
