Effects Return Jack (EFT/RET)
The EFF/RET jack is provided to
connect an external effects
device to the
plug is inserted | t h e | internal |
reverberation u n i t | is | a u t o m a t i - |
cally switched out of the MCX-
106 circuitry, being replaced by the external u n i t . This jack
should be connected to the out - put of the external effects u n i t .
Nominal input level is
w i t h an impedance of 50k ohms.
Effects Output Jack (EFF)
The EFF Out jack used in con- j u n c t i o n with the EFF/RET Jack allows use of an external effects
device in place of | the i n t e r n a l |
reverberation unit . | The effects |
out jack should be connected to the input of the external effect unit . Nominal o u t p u t level is
—l0dB with an impedance of 600 ohms.
Graphic Equalizer Input Jack (GEQ)
The GEQ i n p u t jack allows t h e
graphic equalizer to be used in-
dependently of the

or the i n t e r n a l | power | a m p l i f i e r | |
and the | graphic | equalizer w i t h | |

plug is inserted, the main mix from the program buss is discon- nected from the graphic equal- izer and the power amplifier .
The nominal input level is
w i t h an input impedance of 50k ohms.
Power Amplifier Input Jack (PWR)
The PWR Amp i n p u t jack allows
the internal power amplifier to be used w i t h e x t e r n a l equip- ment . When a plug is inserted, the power amp is a u t o m a t i c a l l y disconnected from the

Buss Link Jacks
The buss link provides direct access to the PGM, FB, and ef- fects mixing busses, and is pro- vided for easy input expansion w i t h additional
Program Output Jack - (PGM)
The PGM Out jack is provided for connection to external equal-
izers and/or power amps, deriv-
ing its signal prior to the internal
GEQ and power amp. Nominal
o u t p u t level is +4dB with an
impedance of 600 ohms.
-Foldback Output Jack (FB) This jack is for connection to external power amplifiers and/ or equalizers for the
o u t p u t level is +4dB with an
impedance of 600 ohms. If the internal power amp and equal - izer are to be used for the on-
stage monitor | system, the | FB | |
o u t p u t | should | be connected | to |
the GEQ | input | jack. |

Cord Wrap
The cord wrap is provided for convenient storage of the power cord when the
use.
Caution - The power cord should
always be completely removed from the cord wrap prior to operation of the u n i t . This will insure maximum cooling of the

inches should do). The vents on
the b o t t o m and top of the MCX-

be kept clear and open. Failure to
do so may cause thermal shut - down of the u n i t .
