The New Generation SPX with 96kHz Audio and brand new "REV-X" Reverb Algorithm
The name "SPX" has been synonymous with "professional multi-effect processor" for more than 15 years, and the models like SPX90, SPX90II, SPX900, SPX1000 and SPX990 have been the most commonly found equipment in the studio and SR racks.The SPX2000, while inheriting the standard interface and common programs from its predecessors, brings a new dimension to the sound quality with the new "REV-X" reverb algorithm and the 96kHz audio DSP. It also offers advanced user interface like 5 assignable LCD back colors, operation lock mode and computer based editor program.SPX2000 is the new generation equipment in line with the DM series Digital Production Consoles, and is suitable for broad range of applications, from Live SR to production studios where professional quality effect processing is required.
Superb Sonic Quality with 24bit/96khz Standard Throughout
The heart of SPX2000 hardware is the 96kHz audio DSP, with 32-bit internal processing (58-bit accumulator) which offers abundant processing power for the advanced effect algorithms. The 24-bit 128-times over-sampling AD/DA converters deliver 106dB dynamic range and flat response from 20Hz to 40kHz at 96kHz sampling rate. Both are in line with the DM series Digital Production Console quality.
Refined Preset Programs Including the Newly Developed "REV-X" Reverb Algorithm
There are 3 banks to the SPX2000 memory: "PRESET", "CLASSIC" and "USER". "PRESET" bank contains 97 programs. 17 programs are made with the newly developed "REV-X" reverb algorithms. "REV-X" is a whole new generation of Yamaha Reverb programs with the richest reverberation tone and smoothest decay. There are "REV-X Hall", "REV-X ROOM" and "REV-X PLATE" algorithms. Newly introduced parameters like ROOM SIZE and DECAY envelope also bring much higher definition and finer nuances.
Other 80 presets consist of the popular trademark SPX programs such as gate reverbs, delays, pitch effects, modulation and other special effects. All programs went through refined editing by the top engineers, and no program is the same as the ones offered in the previous effect processors or digital consoles. The "CLASSIC" bank on the other hand consists of 25 programs giving you the reminiscence of the original SPX90 presets. "USER" bank can store 99 user programs.

| HI.RATIO | 0.1~1.0 | Determines the reverberation length (release time) for the high and low frequency sounds. This is used to simulate the damping factor of walls and ceiling. | |
| LO.RATIO | 0.1~1.4 | Determines the reverberation length (release time) for the high and low frequency sounds. This is used to simulate the damping factor of walls and ceiling. | |
| INI.DLY | 0.0~125.0ms | Determines the time that elapses between the original sound and the reverberation. | |
| DIFF. | 0~10 | Determines the density and separation of the reverberation. | |
| ROOMSIZE | 0~28 | Determines the virtual 'size' of the room, and affects the reverb time. | |
| FINE PARAMETER | MIX BAL. | 0~100% | Determines the level balance of the original (dry) sound and the processed (wet) sound. |
| OUT LVL | 0~100% | Determines the overall level of the mixed original and processed sound. | |
| HPF | Thru, 22.0Hz~8.00kHz | Cuts the low frequencies of the processed sound. | |
| LPF | 1.00~18.0kHz, Thru | Cuts the high frequencies of the processed sound. | |
| LO.FREQ. | 22.0Hz~18.0kHz | Basic frequency for the LO.RATIO parameter. | |
| DECAY | 0~53 | Determines the shape of the reverberation envelope. This affects the 'color' of the reverberation. |
DELAY AND ECHO
The Delay/Echo presets feature versatile, high-quality delay effects allowing you to tap out a tempo for the delay time with the [TAP] button or a footswitch, or synchronize the SPX2000 to the tempo and note values from an external MIDI device.
A full selection of delays is provided, with mono, stereo, and a special stereo with center channel (#50, Delay L, C, R) for creating three-dimensional ambience. There’s also a Stereo Phasing preset (#66) that allows you to modulate the delay sound with a sine or triangle wave for complex, unique delay effects.
The Classic bank also effers two popular programs from the early SPX models: Delay L, R and Stereo Echo.

PITCH CHANGE
These programs give you sophisticated, high-quality pitch shift effects at your fingertips, updating the original SPX programs with enhanced sound, greater musical control and dynamic expressiveness. The new effects have many functions such as mixing of the sounds, feedback, and synchronizing to tempo. The Classic bank includes Pitch effects from the early SPX models, giving you MIDI note control over the pitch change.
MODULATION
A wide variety of modulation effects are included on the SPX2000 for fattening the sound, enhancing it, giving it animation and depth, or completely transforming it. Programs include Flanger, Phaser, Chorus, Symphonic, Tremolo, Auto Pan, Ring Modulation and Modulation Filter. The Rotary Speaker program (#71) faithfully recreates that rich rotating speaker sound for organ and other instruments. Special Dynamic Modulation programs, such as Dyna Flange (#76) and Dyna Phaser (#77), let you vary, respectively, the delay time and the frequency of the effect sound with the dynamics of your playing or MIDI velocity for even greater expressive control. Also included are combination programs such as #62 Reverb + Symphonic, gives you Yamaha's original multiple chorus effect with modulated delay time, and a high-quality reverb. Preset #64 Chorus + Reverb also lets you use both chorus modulation and reverb simultaneously.
