Signal processing• : Preamplication, level adjustment,
mixing of eects, frequency equalization.
Signal distribution• : Summing of signals to the
aux sends for eects processing and monitor mix,
distribution to one or several recording tracks, power
amp(s), control room and 2-track outputs.
Mix• : Setting the volume level, frequency distribution
and positioning of the individual signals in the stereo
eld, level control of the total mix to match the recording

The interface of BEHRINGER mixing consoles is optimized
for these tasks enabling you to easily keep track of the
signal path.
The user’s manual1.2
The user’s manual is designed to give you both an overview
of the controls, as well as detailed information on how to use
them. In order to help you understand the links between
the controls, we have arranged them in groups according
to their function. If you need to know more about specic
issues, please visit our website at http://www.behringer.com,

applications.
