USB Audio Settings:
Note: Download the complete HeadRush MX5 User Guide from
configuring your DAW.
Important note for Windows users: Before connecting the Headrush MX5 to your computer,
download and install the necessary drivers from headrushfx.com/support.
Sample Rate: This setting determines the sample rate of the USB audio signal: 44.1 kHz, 48.0 kHz
or 96.0 kHz. Remember to select the same sample rate as the one in your DAW. Also, set it before
opening your DAW.
USB Audio: This setting determines whether or not HeadRush MX5 is sending a USB audio
signal over a USB connection. Tap On to enable sending of the USB audio signal with the
selected Sample Rate. Tap Off to disable the USB audio signal. (To change the Sample Rate,
set USB Audio to Off first, select the correct sample rate, set USB Audio to On again, and
restart your DAW.)
USB Mode: This setting determines how the HeadRush MX5 sends its audio signal over the USB
connection and how its outputs function while doing so:
•
Live: The audio signal will be sent to your computer as well as to the HeadRush MX5's
outputs.
•
DAW: The audio signal will be sent to your computer only. The HeadRush MX5's
outputs will be disabled to prevent any latency while monitoring.
•
Reamp: Your computer will send an audio signal to the HeadRush MX5, which will
process it through the current rig and send it back to your computer. The HeadRush
MX5's outputs will be disabled to prevent any latency while monitoring.
Pedal Configuration:
External Pedal: This setting determines whether or not you are using an external expression
pedal with the HeadRush MX5.
•
Tap On to use the built-in expression pedal to control the parameter/parameters of
Bank A while your external expression pedal controls the parameter/parameters of
Bank B. (If you are using the expression pedal's Classic Mode, pressing the toe
switch will activate or deactivate the parameter. If you are using Advanced Mode, the
toe switch will be disabled entirely.)
•
Tap Off to disable the expression pedal input and use the built-in expression pedal
only.
Reminders:
Confirm Unsaved: This setting determines whether or not
you will see a confirmation message if you change the rig
while there are unsaved changes on the current one. Tap
On to enable these messages or Off to disable them.
Alternatively, tap Do not show this dialog again in the message itself to disable them.
MIDI Settings: These settings determine how the HeadRush MX5
sends and receives MIDI information to and from external devices.
These settings affect only the HeadRush MX5's MIDI input or MIDI
output.
MIDI Thru: Tap On to use the MIDI output as a MIDI
throughput; any MIDI information sent to the HeadRush
MX5's MIDI input will be sent directly to the MIDI output.
Tap Off to use the HeadRush MX5's MIDI output normally;
the HeadRush MX5 will be able to send its own MIDI
information out of the MIDI output.
Recv MIDI Clock: Tap On to enable the HeadRush MX5 to receive MIDI clock information. Tap
Off to use the HeadRush MX5's own internal MIDI clock (which will not be sent out).
Prog Change: Tap Send to enable or disable the HeadRush MX5's transmission of MIDI program
change messages when you load a rig. Tap Recv to enable or disable the HeadRush MX5's
reception of MIDI program change messages from an external MIDI device.
