In
These input settings control the signal into the models of your
rig:
Preset: This is the current input preset, which includes its
settings on the right edge of the display and its locked/
unlocked state.
Parameters: This menu determines whether these input
settings are locked or unlocked.
When unlocked, the settings will change to the new
rig’s input settings each time you load a new rig. The
lock icon on the main screen will be grey.
When locked, the settings will be retained as “global”
input settings, regardless of the rig. The lock icon on
the main screen will be red.
Rig Input: This setting determines whether the rig’s input signal is taken from the guitar input (Guitar) or the
left (L) return input (FX Ret L). This menu is shown only when Rig Input is set to Per Rig in the global
settings (see Global Settings to learn about this).
Input Level Meter: This level meter indicates the current level of your input signal before the input controls
shown on this screen.
Gain: This setting controls the gain level of the signal sent from your guitar into your rig. The available range is
-60.0 to 12.0 dB.
Gate Thrsh (Threshold): This setting controls the signal level required to open the noise gate, enabling the
guitar signal to be sent to the rig. The available range is -120.0 to 0.0 dB. The threshold is represented by a
white line on the input level meter.
Gate Rel (Release): This setting controls the amount of time it will take for the noise gate to close once the
incoming guitar signal stops. The available range is 1–3000 ms.
USB Level: This setting controls the level of the audio signal sent from your computer to the HeadRush MX5
over a USB connection. The available range is -60.0 to 12.0 dB.
Out
These output settings control the signal sent to the HeadRush
MX5 outputs:
Preset: This is the current output preset, which includes its
settings on the right edge of the display.
Rig Output: This level meter indicates the current level of
your output signal after the output controls shown on
this screen. You can set which outputs will send this
signal in the Global Settings screen.
Alternate Output: This level meter indicates the current
level of your output signal. You can set which outputs
will send this signal in the Global Settings screen. The
To Amp Gain settings controls the level of this signal
unless the Alternate Output source is set to Rig Input.
Rig Vol (Volume): This setting controls the level of the audio signal sent from the outputs. The available
range is -60.0 to 36.0 dB.
To Amp Gain: This setting controls the gain level of the signal for the Alternate Output, unless the Alternate
Output source is set to Rig Input. See Global Settings to learn about this. The available range is -60.0 to 12.0
dB.
Rig Width: This setting controls how much of the stereo field the output signal uses. 100% uses the full
stereo field, while 0% produces a mono signal. This affects stereo signals only, not mono signals. See Main
Screen > Stereo vs. Mono to learn how the HeadRush MX5 handles stereo and mono signals.
