4.7 FX/Mon/Aux sends
FX 1 and 2
The FX outputs 1 and 2 provide the signals of the eects buses 1 and 2.
Thesesignals may be sent to external eects processors and are routed back over
the AUX-RETURN inputs or separate input channels, for example.
MON 1 and 2
The monitor outputs 1 and 2 provide the signals of the monitor buses.
Thesesignals may be be sent to stage loudspeakers. To prevent interference due
to the long cables being used between stage and mixing console, the outputs
are balanced XLR connectors. What's more, youhave the right connectors when
working with multicores.
AUX 1 and 2
The AUX outputs 1 and 2 provide the signals of the AUX buses 1 and 2.
Youcanswitch these buses pre-fader and post-fader so that they may be
usedforeects as well as for monitor applications.
4.8 Aux returns
AUX RETURN
The stereo AUX inputs 1 und 2 let you connect the mixer to additional equipment
(players,eectsprocessors, submixers, etc.). Thesignal is sent to the signal sum.
FX RETURN
The stereo FX RETURN connectors 1 and 2 are linked to the outputs of external
eects processors. Depending on the routing, the signals are sent to the
subgroup or the main mix bus.
4.9 Light and headphone connectors
LAMPS
The LAMPS plugs are for connecting gooseneck lamps with BNC connectors.
Thepower supply is 12 V _ and the total connection load is 5 Watts a lamp.
PHONES
The PHONES outputs (¼" stereo jacks) let you plug in your headphones.
5. Control Elements
This chapter describes the various control elements of your mixing console.
Eachcontrol and switch is explained in full detail.
5.1 Mono channels
+48 V
This control LED lights up as long as the phantom power is switched on.
Theswitch is found on the rear panel of the unit.
Trim
The TRIM control adjusts the input gain.
Be sure to set this control fully counter-clockwise before you connect or
disconnect a signal source to or from one of the inputs.
The dial oers 2 dierent value ranges. The rst value range between 0 and +60
refers to the microphone input, indicatingthe degree of amplication applied to
the input's signal. Thesecond value range between -20 and +40 dB refers to the
amplication of the line input. When centered (at12o'clock), the line signals are
neither boosted nor cut.
80 Hz
Press the 80 Hz switch to activate the high-pass lter which blends out
low-frequency noise (-3 dB at 80 Hz, 18 dB/octave).
Equalization
The mono input channels provide 4-band equalization with 2semi-parametric
mids. You can boost or cut the bands up to 15 dB. When in center position (0 dB),
the equalizer has a atresponse.
HIGH
The high-frequency range is processed with a shelving lter above 12 kHz.
HIGH MID
A semi-parametric peak lter processes the upper mid range between 400 Hz
and 8 kHz. The FRE control selects the frequency which is boosted or cut by using
the HIGH MID control.
