MO-FX is unique in its ease-of-use and its focus on directly affecting a range of input signals from turntables to CDs to Synthesizers. MO-FX combines four powerful digital signal processing modules with an innovative multiband signal bus approach to create unique, performance oriented effects. There are no menus to navigate, multi-function buttons to cross reference, nor cryptic procedures to follow. In fact, chances are you could put aside this manual and get along just ne without it. Use MO-FX to re-mix your vinyl live. MO-FX has a built in phono pre-amp so you can insert MO-FX between the turntable and the mixer and add time synchronized effects to the mix. As an added bonus, this setup allows you to cue the effect before it goes to the house by using the cueing feature of a mixer. MO-FXs unique future / retro case was designed to allow both desktop and rackmount installation. This concept makes MO-FXs control surface optimum for live performance as well as studio use.

2. UNDERSTANDING THE PRODUCT

2.1 FRONT PANEL

ou may have noticed there are no input or output controls on MO-FX. MO-FX was designed like this to make it convenient to set up. If you are using a line-level input, set the output of the source so that MO-FXs Input Level LED sticks in the orange and rarely goes into the red. This is the optimum level for MO-FX. MO-FX will give you Unity Gain when bypassed. Unity Gain means that signals running through it are not boosted or reduced in gain.

FLANGE
" Engage: Toggles the ange effect in and out. " Momentary: Temporarily engages the ange effect. This is useful for tapping patterns to create
distorted hits and rhythms. Note: When an effect is engaged, the momentary will dis-engage it. When an effect is not engaged the momentary will engage it.

" Mix: Sets the Wet / Dry mix of the Flanger Block. MO-FX Mix controls feature an additional 9dB of
Boost in the last 25% of the control range. This can help make the effect stand out in the mix. The Mix control gets the dry signal from the band select feature. That means that when the Mix is set to zero, and the block is engaged, you will hear only the bands you have selected with the band select.

9 English

DISTORTION / INSERT
The Distortion / Insert block differs from the other processing blocks on MO-FX in three ways: It is the only processing block that can function both in series, with the other blocks, and in parallel. You can use this block to trigger external effects by connecting them to MO-FXs stereo insert jacks. Once connected, engaging the Distortion block will insert the external effect into the signal path in addition to the distortion effect. When the drive control is set fully counter clockwise the block bypasses itself allowing you to use the momentary and engage buttons to control the insert jacks only.

" Depth: Controls the width of the ange effect. Depth is at zero at the 12 Oclock position. The
depth control allow you to ip the phase of the anges sweep by setting the depth to either positive or negative depth.

" Regen: Varies the amount of the ange sound that is regenerated or recycled back into the ange
input. This gives you the jet airplane or tube-y sound.

" Speed: Controls the duration of the ange sweep from .1 Hz to 10 Hz. When Sync is engaged the
speed control sets how many times the anger will sweep every beat. For example a division of 1:8 will sweep the anger 1 time over 8 beats or two bars. A division of 2:1 will sweep the anger twice every beat. When the speed control is set to zero, the depth control will manually sweep the anger.

"

Engage Button: Toggles the Distortion circuit in and out. This also engages the analog insert
jacks on the back.

" Sync: Toggles between tempo synchronized speed control and normal speed control. (See Time
Synchronization Features pg.17)

" Momentary: Temporarily engages the Distortion block as well as the analog inserts on the back
of MO-FX. This is useful for tapping patterns to create distorted hits and rhythms. Note: When an effect is engaged, the momentary will dis-engage it. When an effect is not engaged the momentary will engage it.

" Band: Selects between 7 combinations of frequency bands the ange will effect. The
combinations are represented by 3 LED for High, Mid, and Low. The combinations are: All bands, High, Mid, Low, Low+High, Low+Mid, High+Mid. Note: Every time the Band button is pressed MOFX will cycle to the next combination. However, at any point in the cycle the Band button can be held down for 500ms and it will return directly to All bands.

" Level: Sets the volume of the Distortion/Insert block to the stereo mix output. Unlike the other
Wet/Dry Mix controls on MO-FX, the Distortion Level controls how much the output of the Distortion block is added to the outputs.

TREMOLO
" Engage: Toggles the tremolo effect in and out. " Momentary: Temporarily engages the tremolo effect. The momentary essentially
reverses the state of the engage switch. When an effect is engaged, the momentary will dis-engage it. When an effect is not engaged the momentary will engage it.

" Drive: Varies the amount of saturation the Distortion effect will create. When Drive is set to zero the
distortion block is effectively bypassed. There are many cases where you might want to bypass the distortion block. For example, you may have a favorite Fuzz or phaser youd like to use with your setup. Hook it up to MOFXs insert jacks and use the insert engage and momentaries to control the fuzz instead of MOFXs built in distortion.

" Dist to FX: When the distortion block is engaged, and Dist to FX is selected, Distorted signal is
sent to the other effect blocks as well as the stereo output. The Dist to FX send is before the Distortion Level. Even when Dist to FX is selected the Distortion level control still changes the level of distortion to the outputs. This way you can send distortion to the effects without distorting the dry signal by turning down the Distortion level to zero. This allows for distorted delay, ange and tremolo effects. (You can use another block to band limit the distortion by engaging that block, setting its mix control to dry, and selecting the desired bands.)

" Mix: Controls the mix of the tremolo effect. MO-FX Mix controls feature a additional 9dB of Boost
in the last 25% of the control range. The Tremolo Mix control functions in a similar fashion to that of a traditional Tremolo Depth control. The higher the effect Mix setting, the more the signal will fade in and out. The Mix control gets the dry signal from the band select feature. That means that when the Mix is set to zero, and the block is engaged, you will hear only the bands you have selected with the band select.

2. UNDERSTANDING THE PRODUCT

" Auto-Pan: Changes the tremolo effect, (mono sounding) to an auto-pan effect to produce a wide
stereo effect. Auto-pan is selected when the LED around the Auto-Pan switch is lit. All other tremolo controls work in the same way except the effect alternates in the left and right channels.

" Regen: Controls the amount of delay signal that is regenerated or recycled back into the delay
input and repeated. Extreme Regen settings will congure the delay for innite looping. This is where the MO-FX delay gets crazy. To stop the looping turn the regeneration control completely to the left. This will clear the delay.

" Speed: Controls the rate of the tremolo waveform. When Sync is engaged, speed controls how
many times the tremolo will sweep every beat.

" P-Pong: Toggles the delay block from being a regular delay (when the LED around the button
is not lit) to a Ping-Pong delay (when the LED around the button is lit). The Ping-Pong delay has different delay times for the left and right channel. The right channels delay time is half of the left channel. This creates a delay sound that alternates right to left.

" Waveform: Selects from seven tremolo waveform types:

" Speed: Sets the length of the delay time from 2600 ms to 1ms. When Sync is engaged the speed
Sine Wave - excellent waveform for auto-pan effects Triangle - More of a tremolo effect Ramp Down - Very Rhythmic Ramp-Up - useful for creating stutter effects Square 50% - best sounding at higher speeds Square 25% - Gives a chopping sound Square 12% - Dices up the music control sets the number of delays per beat. For example 4:1 indicates a delay 4 times per beat, and 1:2 indicates delay times equivalent to every two beats. Note: This control works in the opposite direction of typical delays. The delay time becomes shorter as the knob is turned to the right. This enables the delay to sound progressively faster as the knob is turned to the right as in the other effect blocks. 11 English

"! Sync: Toggles between tempo-synchronized speed control and normal speed control. Note: The
Tremolo will resync every time this feature is engaged and you can use this to your advantage. Try hitting sync on an off beat (1+2+3+4+) with a 2:1 division and the square wave selected. The tremolo will now sync to the offbeats. (See Time Synchronization Features pg.8)

" Sync: Toggles between tempo synchronized speed control and normal speed control. (See Time
Synchronization Features pg.8)

" Band: Selects between 7 combinations of frequency bands the delay will effect. The
combinations are represented by 3 LED for High, Mid, and Low. The combinations are: All bands, High, Mid, Low, Low+High, Low+Mid, High+Mid. Note: Every time the Band button is pressed MO-FX will cycle to the next combination. However, at any point in the cycle the Band button can be held down for 500ms and it will return directly to All bands.

" Band: Selects between 7 combinations of frequency bands the tremolo will effect. The combinations

However, at any point in the cycle the Band button can be held down for 500ms and it will return directly to All bands.

GLOBAL TIME SYNCHRONIZATION

" Tap Tempo/Sync: The Tap Tempo Button, when used in conjunction with the effect block sync
buttons, will synchronize the rate of each blocks effect to the beat of the music. Tapping the button twice (or more) to the beat will establish the tempo of the song. Tapping 3 or more times can give a more accurate tempo as an average tempo is created from all the taps. The tempo is displayed by ashing the LED around the Tap Tempo button on the beat. The LED will also ash to the beat when MIDI clock is present. Note: If taps are more than 2 seconds apart the Tap Tempo will start calculating a new tempo. If you are having difculty establishing a new tempo, wait for two seconds then tap a new tempo. This will clear the Tap Tempo averaging buffer, and the Tap Tempo LEDs will ash in time with the new tempo.

DELAY
MO-FXs digital Delay can produce some wild sounds. Unlike most digital delays, it emulates the pitch shifting effect of analog delay but with the added delity of its digital signal path. By turning the regeneration control all the way up, you can use the Delay section as a simple sampler.

" Engage: Toggles the delay effect in and out. " Momentary: Temporarily engages the delay effect. This is useful for creating short burst of delay
for rhythmic accents. The momentary essentially reverses the state of the engage switch. When an effect is engaged, the momentary will dis-engage it. When an effect is not engaged the momentary will engage it.

" Mix: Sets the Wet / Dry mix of the Delay Block. MO-FX Mix controls feature a additional 9dB of Boost
in the last 25% of the control range. This can help make the effect stand out in the mix. The Mix control gets the dry signal from the band select feature. That means that when the Mix is set to zero, and the block is engaged, you will hear only the bands you have selected with the band select.

" Sync Button: The ange, tremolo and delay blocks each have a sync control. When the LED
around a SYNC switch is lit, that effect blocks speed control is synchronized to tempo (either Tap Tempo or MIDI clock). When the LED around the SYNC switch is off, the speed of the effect block is set from the speed control. When sync is on, the speed is set from two values: 1. Tempo (Tap or MIDI clock) 2. Setting of the division (using the speed control)

2. UNDERSTANDING THE PRODUCT

For example, if the tempo is 100 BPM and the speed control is set at a division of 1:1, then for a given effect block the speed is 100 BPM. If the division is set at 2:1, then the speed for a given effect block is 200 BPM. Note: MO-FX can only use one global tempo. However, each effect block with sync engaged can have a different beat division. To switch from Tap Tempo back to MIDI sync, press and hold the Tap Tempo button for 1 second.

" Inserts:
1/4 -TRS - Here you can insert your own effects and use the Momentary / Engage controls on MO-FX to control them. MO-FXs pair of analog inserts operate at 0dBu, (the same level as the insert jacks on most mixers). The inserts are before all MO-FX effect blocks. MO-FX automatically senses when you insert 1/4 TRS plugs into its insert jacks. If you insert an effect into only one of the channels, MO-FX will automatically MONO itself whenever the Insert / Distortion is engaged. That way you can insert your favorite guitar pedal and rest assured that MO-FX will take care of the patching to keep everything working properly. Note: The distortion drive control at 0 effectively bypasses the distortion gain blocks. This allows you to use your insert effects by engaging the Distortion/ Insert block without having to distort the signal.

DRY
"! Thru: The dry signal passes through MO-FX at the same level it entered regardless of effects being engaged or not. "! Auto: The dry signal is automatically cut when any effect is turned on with
its engage or momentary button.

13 English

"! Kill: The dry signal is killed at the output of the box. Only effect signals, (when they are engaged), are sent out of the box. Note: on is selected by pushing and holding the Kill Logic button for more than 500 milliseconds.

BYPAS S:
Bypasses all effects and sends the dry signal out of the stereo mix output regardless of the Kill Logic setting.

" Input:
Phono/Line Switch - this switches the RCA inputs to accept phono or line level. RCA. -stereo - When the Phono/Line switch is in the Line position, this input is optimized for a +4 dBu line level input signal. When the Phono/Line switch is set to Phono, the RIAA phono pre-amp will accept a range of cartridge output levels. 1/4 -stereo TRS Balanced - This input is optimized for +4 dBu input signal. When using the 1/4 inputs on MOFX be sure to use the 1/4 outputs as well. This will ensure no noticeable signal loss. Note: Connecting both RCA and 1/4 inch jacks to the Source input causes the level of the 1/4 input to drop. Make sure that when you are using the 1/4 inputs that nothing is connected to the RCA inputs.

2.2

BACK PANEL

" Power Input: This input will accept an IEC standard power cable. The internal power supply can
be used in any region. The fuse drawer can be rotated to accommodate the different power ratings around the world. Check the chart printed near the power entry for fuse ratings.

" Power Switch: Turns the unit on and off. Note: When turning on the equipment be sure to turn
the power ampliers on last. This will ensure that the noise common to mixers and signal processors does not cause damage to the speaker system. When powering down, be sure to turn the power ampliers off rst.

" Footswitch: A standard momentary footswitch may be used to turn Bypass on and off. MO-FX can
accept normally open or normally closed footswitches but the footswitch must be inserted before power up in order for MO-FX to recognize it. The Electrix 3 button footswitch adds extra funtionality. It allows remote control of Tap Tempo, Dry mode, and global bypass.

" Output:
RCA -stereo - The output level is nominally +4dBu 1/4-stereo - This output produces a balanced +4 dBu signal. Used balanced line for long runs (>25 feet) as they give a cleaner signal that is not susceptible to hum and noise like unbalanced lines are.

" MIDI In/Out/Thru: Connect MIDI devices here. See the MIDI Applications section for more detail. " MIDI Channel Select: This selects the channel for both MIDI input and output.

3.1 SET UP 1: PRE-MIXER 3.1 SETUP 2: MIXER WITH AUX SENDS

n this setup the sound source is connected directly to the inputs of the MO-FX. The output is then fed to the mixer. The advantage of this setup in a live situation is that the MO-FX effect can be auditioned (cued) while other sources are playing. A disadvantage of this setup is that only one sound source can be routed through MO-FX.

his setup requires a mixer that features auxiliary (aux) send and return capabilities. All sound sources are connected directly to the mixer inputs and MO-FX is fed its signal from the mixers aux send. The main advantage of this setup is that it allows any or all of the sound sources to be processed through MO-FX at any time. You also have the ability to audition the effect if you connect the output of MO-FX to one of the mixers line inputs instead of the aux return. This way, effects can be auditioned (cued) through the mixer while other sources are playing.

his is a simple setup for stereo processing of your entire mix. Youll want to use this setup only after you have explored all the sonic possibilities of MO-FX because cueing is not possible. The cueing limitation can be minimized by bringing in the effect gradually with MO-FXs mix controls and doing any adjustments from that point on. The 1/4 output has a servo driver circuit that, when used with 3 conductor balanced cables, is capable of driving longer cables to your power amp.

"Kick Shifting (Delay Based):

This setting will allow you to move the bass or kick around in time, radically changing the feel of the track without affecting the driving nature of the kick. We will also be engaging the Tremolo block, but you will only be using the Delay section to control the bass shift.
