Using two-way communication you can control two LXP-15s, one for each
input/output pair. If you have a high quality MIDI merger you can control
multiple LXP-15s on the same input/output pair. (Each LXP-15 and its
corresponding MRC machine must be assigned to a different MIDI channel.)
To use a foot pedal or other analog controller as a patch source for your LXP-
15, be aware that you can connect one or two pedals to the MRC instead of
to the LXP-15 rear panel Foot Controller jacks. This allows you to control
multiple
LXP-15s (or other LXP processors) from the same pedal(s).
As long as the LXP-15 MIDI OUT is connected to the appropriate MRC IN,
you can maintain two-way communication, even if other devices are daisy
chained to the MRC OUT. This is useful, for instance, when you want to
control the LXP-15 and one or more sound modules from a sequencer or
keyboard. (See illustration.)
