# MCXSynthesisDefault

*class* `qiskit.transpiler.passes.synthesis.hls_plugins.MCXSynthesisDefault`

[GitHub](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.3/qiskit/transpiler/passes/synthesis/hls_plugins.py#L1139-L1181)

Bases: [`HighLevelSynthesisPlugin`](/docs/api/qiskit/1.3/qiskit.transpiler.passes.synthesis.plugin.HighLevelSynthesisPlugin "qiskit.transpiler.passes.synthesis.plugin.HighLevelSynthesisPlugin")

The default synthesis plugin for a multi-controlled X gate.

This plugin name is :`mcx.default` which can be used as the key on an [`HLSConfig`](/docs/api/qiskit/1.3/qiskit.transpiler.passes.HLSConfig "qiskit.transpiler.passes.HLSConfig") object to use this method with [`HighLevelSynthesis`](/docs/api/qiskit/1.3/qiskit.transpiler.passes.HighLevelSynthesis "qiskit.transpiler.passes.HighLevelSynthesis").

## Methods
