Parallel vs. serIal
The MX300 can be used as both a Parallel and Serial (in-line) effects processor.
Typically, reverbs and delays are used in parallel, compressors and de-essers in serial,
and modulated effects can be used in either configuration, depending on the desired
application.

A Parallel Processor is connected by sending a copy of a signal (such as from an Aux
Send of a mixer channel) to an effects device (such as the MX300), and the effected
(or wet) signal is returned to the mixer or amp. It is then blended together with the
original unaffected (dry) signal. This blend is called the Wet/Dry mix. This connection
is most often used for reverbs, delays, and some modulated effects (such as chorus).

A Serial Processor is connected by sending the entire signal through the effects device

This is the type of connection most often used for a compressor, de-esser, equalizer, and
many modulated effects (such as tremolo, vibrato, and rotary).

reverbs
Reverberation (or “reverb” for short) is the complex effect created by the way we per-
ceive sound in an enclosed space. When sound waves encounter an object or boundary,
they don’t just stop. Some of the sound is absorbed by the object, but most of the sound
is reflected or is diffused. In an enclosed space, reverb is dependent on many features of
that space, including the size, shape and the type of materials that line the walls. Even
with closed eyes, a listener can easily tell the difference between a closet, a locker room
and a large auditorium. Reverb is a natural component of the acoustic experience, and
most people feel that something is missing without it.
