Vortex Question

[Emmanuel Angel <angel2@dolphin.upenn.edu>]

Wondering if anyone out there might know about this ...

Is there a true analog path through the Vortex for the "dry" signal?
In other words, when I set the "Mix" parameter to something less than
64 (the max setting), am I actually getting some of my analog tone
through the box, or is everything getting digitized prior to the
"Mix" parameter.  What about when I hit the bypass footswitch (and
see "bp" on the face of the unit)?
