About this deal

Can I assign half of my footswitches to control models, and half of my footswitches to control rig selection at the same time?

The MX5 has a touchscreen has been downsized from seven inches to four but viewed in proportion it still commands our attention, and it is super satisfying using drag-and-drop icons to put together a signal chain. Sure, assembling or rearranging your pedalboard is a fun way to while away a Sunday morning, but the ease of use and the efficiency of units like the MX5 is a godsend when someone adds a new tune to a setlist and you have minutes not hours.The 4 new Amp Models range from clean and crunchy tones to fierce metal tones. Bass players get to utilise the B DIST 7000 model inspired by the Darkglass Microtubes B7K Ultra V2 Bass Preamp. Yes! A third expression pedal can be added by plugging an additional midi controller or pedal into the MIDI In port using the included adapter! The MX5 is a product of this evolution, and its user interface is as friendly as it comes, making light work of putting together complex signal chains and stereo setups that really get the best out of some of the modulation and delay sounds on offer. When you press this footswitch, you can "punch-in/punch-out" of a specific part of your loop and overwrite all previous layers. This is useful when you need to fix a very small part of a loop.

The MX5 features a convenient "hands free" edit mode which allows you to adjust any parameter mid-song without having to stop playing and bend down to make the changes.Simply select the model that you want to adjust, select the parameter, and then use the built-in expression pedal to fine-tune your settings! Simple! The expression pedal is also fully assignable within each preset and can be used as a volume or a wah wah pedal in addition to tweaking preset parameters. Record and Reamp The switches on the HeadRush MX5 are dual-purpose: holding down the switch will enter hands-free edit mode, and letting go initiates the action of the assigned pedal (on/off). This means that a model will not turn on/off until the associated pedal is released, which may differ from some standalone pedals that active/deactivate on the initial press. In Classic Mode, you can assign one parameter to each expressional pedal (A and B). Using the toe switch will select the other expression pedal and deactivate (bypass) the current expression pedal’s parameter. For example, if you assign a wah pedal to Expression Pedal A and a volume pedal to Expression Pedal B, only one of them will be active at any time; when you are controlling the wah pedal, the volume pedal will be bypassed, and vice versa. Yes, the HeadRush MX5 can be connected directly to a USB port on your computer for recording straight into your favorite DAW. The USB port will supply 4 channels in and out, including stereo dry and wet signals. However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.Whether you are a customer or dealer, if you already own a HeadRush product, or if you just have a pre-sales question, the HeadRush technical support team is available to help!
