2 DOWNLOAD & INSTALL THE WINDOWS® USB DRIVER
A. If using a Windows computer, download the Alpha USB driver from http://lexiconpro.com/
en-US/products/alpha#downloads.
B. Close any running software programs then launch the Alpha Driver Installer and follow the
on-screen instructions to install it.
NOTE: If using a Mac® computer, the Alpha will use the CoreAudio driver that was already
installed with OS X, so no additional driver installation is necessary.

your MySteinberg account.

on-screen instructions to register, download, install, and authorize Cubase LE.
C. To download the Lexicon MPX-i reverb plug-in, follow the instructions provided on the
included license card.
D. Launch the Lexicon MPX-i Plug-in Installer and follow the on-screen installation and
authorization instructions.

available at http://lexiconpro.com/en-US/products/alpha#documentation.
4 SET RECORDING & MONITORING LEVELS
A. If you are recording a mic and monitoring through studio monitors in the same room, turn
them down or off and use headphones to avoid bleed and feedback.
B. Set the Output Level knob to the 9 o’clock position.
C. Press the Monitor button to select the monitor mode for your application.
D. With signal present, gradually increase the channel’s gain (Line 1/Inst or Line 2/Mic) knob
until the channel’s Peak LED just begins to light occasionally without distortion. If necessary,
re-adjust the Output Level knob for the desired monitoring level. Repeat this step for the
other channel if applicable.
