1. Introduction  
2. Control Elements  
Our ultra-compact stereo multi-effect processor is a useful addition to any set-up: and Connections  
You get 16 fantastic effects presets in 24-bit quality, including reverb, delay,  
chorus, flanger, phaser, rotary speaker, pitch shifter and other multi-effects.  
Thanks to the intuitive FX preset control with its LEDs displaying the currently  
selected program, nothing could be easier than operating the FEX800. What is  
more, a variety of edit and tap/select functions allows you to modify the effect  
parameters extensively. A high-precision, 6-digit LED display can be used to  
accurately set the stereo input level.  
2.1 Front panel  
(1)

Further features are the handy Mix Balance and Output Level controls for precise  
effect level setting, as well as an additional footswitch connector for easy  
enabling/disabling of effects.

The FEX800 will take your music productions to a higher level!  
1.1 Before you get started  
1.1.1 Shipment  
Fig. 2.1: Front panel control elements of the FEX800  
(1) The two LED displays show the effect preset currently selected. One LED is  
assigned to each preset.  
The presets are grouped in four categories: REVERB 1 (1-4), REVERB 2  
(5-8), DELAY/MODULATION (9-12), SPECIAL FX/DUAL EFFECTS (13-16).  
Your FEX800 was carefully packed at the assembly plant to assure secure  
transport. Should the condition of the cardboard box suggest that damage may  
have taken place, please inspect the unit immediately and look for physical  
indications of damage.  
(2) Use the PRESETS control to select one of the 16 effect presets.  
(3) The EDIT control allows you to edit one effect parameter. The center position  
corresponds to the default setting programmed for the preset.  
Damaged equipment should NEVER be sent directly to us. Please inform  
the dealer from whom you acquired the unit immediately as well  
as the transportation company from which you took delivery.  
Otherwise, all claims for replacement/repair may be rendered invalid.  
When you change presets the FEX800 always recalls the default or user  
settings for the selected preset, irrespective of the position of the EDIT  
control. However, the user settings will remain effective only as long as  
the unit is not switched off or disconnected from the mains.  
Please always use the original packaging to avoid damage due to  
storage or shipping.  
(4) The TAP/SELECT button performs two functions:  
Never let unsupervised children play with the FEX800 or with  
its packaging.  
TAP (tempo entry): Hit the button several times in the tempo of the music  
piece to adapt the delay time of presets 9 and 15 or the modulation speed of  
presets 10-12. The button starts flashing in the corresponding tempo.  
Please dispose of all packaging materials in an environmentally  
friendly fashion.  
SELECT (additional effect parameter): Press this button to choose  
between two different effect characteristics when using presets 1-8, 13-14,  
16. When the button lights up this means that the corresponding parameter  
of the selected preset has been activated.  
1.1.2 Initial operation  
Be sure that there is enough space around the unit for cooling. To avoid  
overheating, do not place the FEX800 on top of power amps or near radiators, etc.  
Table 6.1 gives you an overview of all effect parameters that can be  
edited in the various presets .  
To power the FEX800, use only the power supply unit that is delivered  
with your equipment.  
(5) Use the INPUT LEVEL control to adjust the input signal level. Please be sure  
to set a level that is sufficiently high but does not overload the unit.  
Please ensure that the unit is installed and operated only by people  
qualified to do so. During installation and operation the user must have (6) The L + R LED display is for monitoring the input level. It comprises 6 LEDs.  
sufficient electrical contact to earth. Electrostatic discharge may affect  
the operation of the unit.  
When the CLIP LED lights up, this indicates that digital distortion may  
occur at the input of the FEX800. In this case, the input signal level must  
be reduced.  
Malfunction may occur due to static discharge at the inputs/outputs of  
the FEX800. In this case, switch off the unit temporarily.  
(7) Use the MIX BALANCE control to adjust the ratio of original vs. effect signal.  
Turn the control fully to the right to hear only the processed effect signal.  
Turn it fully to the left to hear only the unprocessed input signal.  
1.1.3 Online registration  
Please register your new BEHRINGER equipment right after your purchase by visiting (8) The IN/OUT button enables/disables the effect signal. The button lights up

when the input signal is being processed by the FEX800. In order to hear the  
processed signal you have to set a suitable ratio of effect vs. direct signal  
using the MIX BALANCE control (7).  
Should your BEHRINGER product malfunction, it is our intention to have it  
repaired as quickly as possible. To arrange for warranty service, please contact  
the BEHRINGER retailer from whom the equipment was purchased. Should your  
BEHRINGER dealer not be located in your vicinity, you may directly contact  
one of our subsidiaries. Corresponding contact information is included in the  
original equipment packaging (Global Contact Information/European Contact  
Information). Should your country not be listed, please contact the distributor  
nearest you. A list of distributors can be found in the support area of our website  
(http://behringer.com).  
(9) Use the OUTPUT LEVEL control to adjust the output level.  
(10) The switch turns your MINIFEX FEX800 on and off. The switch lights up  
when the unit is switched on.  
Merely switching the unit off does not mean that it is fully  
disconnected from the mains. To disconnect the unit from the mains,  
pull out the mains connector. Please make sure before installation that  
the mains connector has not been damaged. If you do not use the unit  
for an extended period of time, please disconnect it at the mains.  
Registering your purchase and equipment with us helps us process your repair  
claims more quickly and efficiently.

3.2 REVERB 2  
REVERB 2 comprises popular artificial reverb algorithms, which characterize  
numerous pop/rock and dance tracks of the last few years.  
GOLD PLATE simulates the legendary sound of a reverb plate as used in former  
studio reverb units. This effect features a very dense sound of its own and  
is particularly suited to produce a very distinct reverb, e.g. for drums and vocals.

GATED REV simulates the reverb type cut off by a gate, which was very  
popular in the 80’s. This effect was typically used with snare or kick drums,  
but can be used to achieve interesting effects with other instruments too.  
(11) The FEX800 is connected to the mains using a 2-pole POWER connector jack.  
A matching mains adaptor is included with the unit.  
REVERSE produces a reverb which has its reverb tail reversed. Consequently,  
the reverb volume does not decrease over time but increases. This preset  
can be used for unusual effects with the most varied kinds of signals. A very  
popular application is to use it for snare drums.  
To avoid damage to your FEX800 always use the mains adaptor supplied  
with the unit.  
(12) A single footswitch can be connected to the IN/OUT connector.  
This footswitch allows you to remotely control the IN/OUT button (8) on the  
front panel and switch the effect signal on and off.  
AMBIENCE provides the signal with spatial information, however, does not  
produce an audible reverb. The preset works well with drums, keyboards,  
guitars and vocals or whenever you need an unobtrusive room sound  
without reverb.  
(13) The two OUTPUT connectors are on 1/ connectors and provide a balanced  
left/right signal.  
(14) The two INPUT connectors are on 1/ connectors and can be used for  
unbalanced signals. A single mono signal should be connected to the L jack.

3.3 DLY/MOD  
The DELAY/MODULATION category offers three modulation effects for special  
sound-tweaking applications and one stereo delay preset.  
3. The Effects  
Your MINIFEX FEX800 comes with 16 presets, which are grouped in four different  
DELAY produces several echoes/delays of the input signal, reduces them in  
level and adds them to the original signal (echo effect). Use the DELAY preset  
to create effects which are very interesting in terms of rhythm. This preset  
can be used for virtually any instruments. It is particularly useful for  
keyboards, guitars and vocals.  
categories. All of them are stereo effects.  
Table 6.1 contains a list of the preset effect parameters which can be  
edited as well as a description of the TAP/SELECT button’s function.  
CHORUS gives a signal more body and width, so that it sounds richer.  
CHORUS can be used for virtually any signals which should sound a bit fuller.  
3.1 REVERB 1  
The presets from the REVERB 1 category reproduce the characteristics of natural  
spaces of different sizes.  
FLANGER gives a signal a wonderful „retro“ touch. FLANGER has always  
been a popular effect for guitars and keyboards. But you can also produce  
interesting sounds in combination with drums, vocals or other signals.  
PHASER is an effect which adds a copy of the input signal, however,  
shifted in phase. PHASER is a traditional guitar, electric piano and keyboard  
effect. But you can also produce distinctive effect sounds in combination  
with drums or other signals.  
CATHEDRAL simulates the reverberation that you can hear in big cathedrals.  
This effect is characterized by a long reverb and very specific echoes. It works  
well with solo instruments and vocals.  
CONCERT simulates the reverberation in a mid-size concert hall. The preset  
is well suited for all natural instruments such as piano. When used sparingly,  
it also gives vocals an interesting touch, for example, in ballads.  
CLUB simulates the cozy atmosphere of a mid-size jazz club or theater.  
This reverb is characterized by its early reflections and short decay.  
The preset works well with vocals, electric piano, drums, saxophone and  
other instruments.  
CHAMBER simulates the typical characteristics of a studio. The preset is well  
suited for drums, guitars and vocals or whenever you need an unobtrusive  
reverb to breathe some life into a signal.

because you only want to use the processed signal rather than a mix of direct and  
effects signals. In order to use an effects unit such as the MINIFEX in the insert  
path, you will have to adjust the desired volume ratio of direct vs. effect signal  
with the MIX BALANCE control (7).  
ROTARY simulates the accelerating, braking and rotating movements of  
a Leslie loudspeaker system. The fast rotation produces a characteristic  
shifting of frequencies. Traditionally, this is an effect for electronic organ.  
However, it can also be used for other signals.  
Please use the respective channel insert to process specific instruments.  
Groups of instruments or stereo mixes can be processed with the sub-group/  
main-mix inserts.  
PITCH SHIFT adds another signal to the original signal, below or above  
the original pitch. This effect is particularly suited to enhance the sound of  
guitars and vocals.

4. Application Examples  
The FEX800 can be integrated into the signal path in various ways. Please find a  
few wiring examples below.  
XENYX X1222USB  
Fig. 4.2: Wiring the MINIFEX via the insert paths  
4.1 The MINIFEX in the aux(iliary) path  
4.3 The MINIFEX as an effects unit  
for instruments  
You can also use the MINIFEX on stage as an effects unit for keyboards. This can  
be useful if your keyboard has only limited effect capabilities or if you want to  
process selected sounds with the MINIFEX effects via existing single outputs.  
The illustration below shows how to wire the FEX800 either to an amplifier or  
It is particularly advisable to connect the MINIFEX via the aux paths of a mixing  
console. Aux paths are signal busses to which you can route specific signals.  
Each channel strip on a mixing console has a level control for each aux path,  
which determines the signal portion routed from the respective channel strip  
to the aux bus. The signal is routed from the aux bus output of the console to an  
effects unit for processing. Subsequently, the processed effect signal from the  
external effects processor is routed back to the console via an aux return or other via a D.I. box to a mixing console. You can switch the effect on and off using an  
mono/stereo input, where it is mixed with the unprocessed original signal in the  
additional footswitch.  
main mix bus.  
Keyboard  
This way of connecting your FEX800 allows you to adjust different effect  
intensities for different instruments. For example, you could give a snare drum  
more reverb than a kick drum. The volume ratio of direct vs. effect signal is  
determined using the aux return level control, while the aux send control in the  
corresponding channel strip adjusts the effect intensity for each instrument.  
Two mono aux paths are required for stereo signal processing. If you want to  
process single signals in mono, please use only one aux path. In this case, the aux  
send output must be connected to the L(MONO) jack in the INPUT section (14) of  
the FEX800.  
ULTRATONE KT108  
Please make sure that the FEX800 provides only one effect signal in this

5. Audio Connections  
5.2 Connection with 1" cables  
There are various ways to integrate the FEX800 into your set-up. Depending on  
the application in question, you will need different sets of connecting cables.  
The cables to use are described below.  
To wire the MINIFEX in series with other equipment or via the aux paths of a  
mixing console, please use 1/ cables, sometimes also referred to as patch cords.  
These cables have a 1/ connector at each end. Connect the aux send outputs of  
your console to the inputs, and the aux returns to the outputs of the MINIFEX.  
You can also connect balanced stereo 1/ cables to the MINIFEX outputs.  
5.1 Connection with insert cables  
Please use standard insert cables equipped with 1/ connectors to connect the  
MINIFEX to the insert path of a mixing console. These Y cables have two 1/ TS  
connectors at one end, and one 1/ TRS connector at the other. Connect the plug  
marked „Send“ to the INPUT L jack on the effects unit. Connect the „Return“  
plug to the OUTPUT L jack on the device. Connect the TRS connector to the insert  
jack of the channel strip on the mixing console. Use two insert cables for stereo  
sub-groups and main-mix inserts. The second cable must be connected to the  
INPUT/OUTPUT R jacks of the FEX800.
