15. FX/MON 2 SEND OUTPUT
This
1
/4" TRS line-level output can be used to feed an
external effects processor (FX) or another set of stage
monitors (mon 2). The output here is a copy of what
goes into the internal FX processor, being the careful
mix of all channels whose FX/mon 2 control [22] is
turned more than minimum.
The processed output of the internal FX does
not come out of here, but is added internally
to the main mix or monitor 1 mix.
The overall output level can be adjusted with the
FX/mon 2 send control [49], and it can be either post
or pre channel level, depending on the setting of the FX
send /mon 2 send switch [51] as follows:
MONITOR 2 SEND or FX SEND?
To run one set of stage monitors, use the monitor 1
system because it has its own graphic EQ [41], master
level [43], and meter [45]. To run another set of moni-
tors, set the FX send/mon 2 send switch to mon 2.
Stage monitors allow the talented musicians in your
band to hear themselves clearly on stage, and this can
often be a good thing. The monitor output can be care-
fully adjusted in level using the channel FX/mon 2 con-
trols [22], and not change if the channel levels or main
mix levels are adjusted. This is known as "pre-fader."
If they want "more me, and less Keith," you can turn
up their channel's FX/mon 2 control, and turn down
Keith's. (If you were using monitor 1 to feed the stage
monitor, then you would adjust the mon 1 control [21]
on each channel.)
To feed an external effects processor, such as a nice
sound effect, or delay, the feed should be "post-fader."
In this way, any changes to the channel level will also
affect the level going to the external processor. The
processed output from the effects processor is usu-
ally returned to a spare channel, and you can carefully
mix the original unprocessed channel (dry) and the
processed channel (wet). Altering the original channel
level increases both the wet and dry signals and keeps
them at the same delicate ratio. (For example, the re-
verb remains at the same level relative to the original).
