Non-Registered Non-registered parameter implementation in the 300 allows all public system Parameter Numbers parameters to be controlled. The smaller packet size of these messages, as
compared to equivalent SysEx messages, make non-registered parameters a more efficient means of system data transmission.

Transmission Format

When Auto Mode is set to NREG-PARAM (in Control Mode), changing any public system parameter will transmit a running status MIDI controller message formatted as shown below. Note that Lexicon uses: nrpn MSB messages (63) to send 300 Domain ID nrpn LSM messages (62) to send 300 parameter numbers data entry MSB messages (06) to send coarse parameter values data entry LSB messages (26) to send fine parameter values
Control Change nrpn MSB nrpn LSB data entry MSB data entry LSB

Channel Number

data (specifies Domain)
data (specifies parameter number)
data (specifies parameter "fine" value)

Reception Format

Non-Register parameter data will be recognized in both a running status format and as a burst of individual controller messages. Domain IDs Number 6 Description Utility Run Setup Effect A Effect B Modulation A Modulation B

DIGITAL EFFECTS SYSTEM

The 300 V3.0 factory default state is: Analog In; 48kHz sampling rate.

V3.0 Setups

The 300 is organized into Setups and Effects. Setups are collections of many decisions, including DSP routing (single or split), Input levels, Source, Balances, LFO Rate and Shape, and one (or two) Effects. These decisions are grouped together, named, and stored so they can be called up with a single user action. To simplify the choice among the many possible effect and system routings, the 300 is shipped with 100 Setup Presets. The Setup Presets are organized as follows:
101-150 = Single Setups 201-225 = Dual Mono Setups 301-325 = Cascade Setups

Single Setups

Single Setups unify both Machine A and Machine B into a single DSP engine. All Single Setup Presets are factory loaded with an Effect of the same name. (The Effect number may not be the same.)

Press EFFECT EDIT. Press the buttons above or below a parameter label to select it. Turn the Soft knob to increase or decrease the parameter value. Press PAGE DOWN to view additional parameter pages; press EFFECT EDIT to return to the main edit screen. Press VALUE to alternate between a display of parameter names and a display of their values.

Storing your changes

Once you have made changes to an Effect, remember that you must not only store those changes in Effect Edit mode, but also must store the Setup in which the Effect is loaded.
Note: If the 300 Copy Tools function is set to DISABLE, no STORE functions can be performed.This function is enabled in CNTRL mode. (Selection of CNTRL does not interrupt audio operation of the 300.)
From Effect Edit mode, press STORE. Turn the Soft knob to find an available register, then press STORE again.
From Setup Edit mode, press STORE. Turn the Soft knob to find an available register, then press STORE again.

Split Setups

To select a split setup, press SETUP SELECT, use the Soft knob to select a Setup Preset numbered 201-325, then press ENTER. Dual Mono Setups (201225) load one effect into Machine A (left out) and one into Machine B (right out).

Editing Effects in Machine A and Machine B
Press EFFECT EDIT. Press the buttons above or below a parameter label to select it for Soft knob adjustment. Press VALUE to display parameter values. Press MACH to toggle between Machines A and B. STORE your changes as described on the previous page. If you've changed parameters in both machines, you will have to perform a STORE operation for each effect. After the first effect is stored, press MACH and store the other, then store the Setup.
The 300 has many features which are not described here, such as the ability to trigger setup, effect and parameter changes based on a Time code Event List, Dynamic MIDI functions, and more. For complete information on these, and other features, please read the 300 V3.0 Owner's Manual.
