Saving a Program
If you make any changes to a program, an
asterisk (*) will appear next to the program
name in the Title Bar of the Program
Editor. The LED associated with the corre-
sponding knob or button and the Store but-
ton on the MX200’s front panel also illumi-
nates, indicating a change from the loaded
program.
To save a program to disk, click
File and
select Save or Save As, and enter a file
name. By default, programs are saved to
your computer in the
My Documents fold-
er; to choose a different location, simply
navigate to a different folder or create a
new folder in which to save your MX200
program files. (For example,
C:\Documents and
Settings\username\My
Documents\MX200 Presets
). Click the
Save button to complete the process.
You can also save a program simply by
closing the active Program Editor window.
If any changes have been made to the
loaded program, a dialog box appears,
asking if you want to save your changes.
Click
Yes to save the changes, No to close
without saving, or Cancel to return to the
active Program Editor window. If you
choose this method to save your changes,
the current program will be over-written; to
save the program as a new file with a dif-
ferent name (and keep the loaded pro-
gram’s settings intact), click
File then Save
As.
MX200 programs are given the file exten-
sion .m2p, and they can be copied, moved,
attached to emails – anything you can do
with a standard document or file. These
files should, however, only be opened by
MX-Edit Editor/Librarian software to pre-
vent corruption.
Storing a Program
To store a program into one of the 99 User
program locations in the MX-Edit Library
(and the corresponding location in the
MX200’s physical memory), open the pro-
gram you wish to store. With the Program
Editor window active, click
Device, then
Store Program. The Store to Device dia-
log appears, allowing you to choose the
User program location and program name
to store with it. Be aware that storing a pro-
gram in this manner will over-write the pro-
gram previously stored in that location,
both in the MX-Edit Library and the MX200
itself. Click
Save to store to the selected
User program location. To cancel the oper-
ation, click
Cancel, or close the Store to
Device dialog box.
To rename a User program in the Library,
right-click on its name in the Library win-
dow and select
Rename. Type in the new
name and press Enter to save the change.
Since the Factory programs can never be
over-written, you cannot store to nor
rename a Factory program location. You
may edit a Factory program, but it must be
stored to a User program location.
Archiving
Archiving is a powerful tool for preserving
the current state of your MX200. When you
archive the MX200, all of its presets and
global settings are sent to the computer
and saved to a file. When an archive is
restored, the MX200 is configured exactly
how it was when you archived it. This
allows you to not only create safety back-
ups, but create unique configurations for
various purposes. For example, you might
want to create a setup specifically for that
gig you’re playing on the weekend, but still
keep all your favorite studio presets intact.
Use MX-Edit’s
Backup feature to archive
the MX200’s settings, then modify and
store anything and everything you want,
without worrying about reprogramming all
