LINE IN
Each stereo channel has two balanced line level inputs on ¼"
connectors for left and right channels. If only the connector
marked “L” (left) is used, the channel operates in mono. The
stereo channels are designed to handle typical line level
signals. Both inputs will also accept unbalanced connectors.
FX
The FX send of the stereo channels functions similar to that
of the mono channels. However, since the FX send bus is
mono, a mono sum is first taken from the stereo input before
it is sent to the FX bus.
BAL
The BAL(ANCE) control determines the levels of left and
right input signals relative to each other before both signals
are then routed to the main stereo mix bus. If a channel is
operated in mono via the left line input, this control has
the same function as the PAN control used in the mono
channels.
LEVEL
The LEVEL control determines the volume of the channel
being sent to the main mix.
+4/-10
The stereo inputs of the XENYX have an input sensitivity
switch which selects between +4 dBu and -10 dBV. At
-10 dBV (home-recording level), the input is more sensitive
(requires less level to drive it) than at +4 dBu (studio level).

FX SEND
The FX SEND connector outputs the signal you picked up
from the individual channels using the FX controls. You can
connect this to the input of an external effects device in
order to process the FX bus’ master signal. Once an effects
mix is created, the processed signal can then be routed from
the effects device outputs back into a stereo input.
If the connected effects processor receives no input
signal, the FX SEND control is probably too low. This
also goes for the built-in effects processor.
Adjust your external effects processor to 100% wet
(effects signal only), because the effects signal is added
to the main mix along with the “dry” channel signals.
In this instance, the FX control of the channel being
used as an effects return should be turned fully
counterclockwise, otherwise feedback problems can
occur!
PHONES/CONTROL ROOM OUT
The stereo PHONES connector (at the top of the connector
panel) is where headphones are connected. The unbalanced
CONTROL ROOM OUT connectors carry the summed effects
and main mix signals as well as soloed channel signals.
The PHONES/CONTROL ROOM control in the main section
adjusts the level of both headphones and main monitor
outputs.
MAIN OUT
The MAIN OUT connectors are unbalanced mono
connectors. The main mix signal appears here at a level
of 0 dBu. The MAIN MIX fader adjusts the volume of these
outputs. Depending on how you wish to use your mixer
and which gear you own, you can connect the following
equipment:
Live PA systems:
A stereo dynamics processor (optional), stereo equalizer
(optional) and the stereo power amplifier for full-range
loudspeakers with passive crossovers.
If you wish to use multi-way loudspeaker systems without
an integrated crossover, you have to use an active crossover
and several power amplifiers. Often, limiters are already
built into active crossovers (e.g. BEHRINGER SUPER-X PRO
CX2310 and ULTRADRIVE PRO DCX2496). Active crossovers
are implemented directly before the power amplifier, and
they divide the frequency range into several segments that
are first amplified in the amplifiers and then passed on to the
corresponding loudspeakers.
