The users guide was excellent. It provided the information neeeded to connect and control the Crate system. Nothing was left to chance

Routing Options
Using the MX200
The MX200�s powerful Dual Processor design and four signal routing options allow you to use it as two independent effects processors, or combine the reverbs and effects for a nearly limitless palette of complex sounds.
Storing Programs
1. Press the Store button once. ST appears briefly in the Program Display, followed by the flashing User program number (indicated by the small dot over User Program being lit). 2. Use the Program Select knob to select a User program location to store your edits. 3. Press the Store button again to complete the procedure. To return to the program without storing changes, press any other button on the front panel.
Once you have edited a program to your liking, you can store these edits into a User program memory location. To store a program, follow these steps:
1. Dual Mono
This routing option sends the Left and Right input signals through Processor 1 and Processor 2 respectively. Each signal is then routed to its respective output, completely independent from the other.
2. Cascade
Left and Right input signals are sent first through Processor 1, then through Processor 2, then routed as a stereo signal to their respective outputs.
3. Dual Stereo (Parallel)
Left and Right input signals are sent through both processors independently. The output signals of both processors are then mixed together, and routed to both the outputs as a single stereo signal.
4. Mono Split
Left input signal is sent through Processor 1, while the Right input signal is sent through Processor 2. The output signals of both processors are then mixed together, and routed to both the outputs as a single stereo signal.
