Notes

  • There's no crossfading when switching between X and Y.
  • Switching occurs at block level using a MID CC, not on preset level.
  • X/Y switching is nearly instantaneous.
  • Cliff: "The idea behind X/Y is that people often have multiple distortion/chorus/delay/etc. pedals on their board but they rarely have more than one on at a time. So rather than creating more instances of effects, which sucks up CPU, have each instance capable of more than one sound." Source
  • X/Y doesn't support delay and reverb spillover. Source

X/Y on the MFC-101

On the MFC-101 X is green, Y is Red.

How to switch between X/Y on multiple effects simultaneously

Set and use a single X/Y CC for the desired effects.

How to copy settings between X and Y

By double-clicking Y you can copy the parameters from the X channel, and vice versa.

Configuring floot controllers

If you have an effect block with X/Y, you can configure the floor controller to turn on the effect in either X or Y mode.

  1. IA Switch 1, ON message: DELAY 1 ON, DELAY 1 X (CC#47:127, CC#106: 127)
  2. IA Switch 1, OFF message: DELAY 1 OFF, DELAY 1 X (CC#47:0, CC#106: 127)
  3. IA Switch 2, OFF message: DELAY 1 ON, DELAY 1 Y (CC#47:127, CC#106: 0)
  4. IA Switch 2, OFF message: DELAY 1 OFF, DELAY 1 Y (CC#47:0, CC#106: 0)

Use the controller's group/link feature. Source
