Setting the levels:
On the channels that you want to add reverb, turn the EFX knob to the 0 position. This will
send a signal from that channel to the reverb unit. In the master section of the
control mixes the reverberated signal to the outputs. The 0 position on the EFX send is just a starting recommendation. This control can be adjusted to add more or less reverb to a
particular microphone. The Red LED in the effects section performs two purposes. If the effects mute is pressed, it will light solid red. This LED also blinks as you start getting close to clipping (overdriving) the effects unit. If the LED stays on or is on for more than an occasional blink, reduce the level of the channel EFX sends. Turn up the master effects level as needed. Remember that a little bit of reverb goes a long way.
Ambience mic
If you chose to use an ambience mic to add congregational singing (or liturgical reading) to the Record or Auxiliary outputs, we will set it at this time. You will need to listen to the record output, (use headphones connected to your recorder) and experiment to see what works for you.
a.Begin by setting the Group Assign switch on channel 10 to the CONG/REC position.
b.Set the channel fader to 0.
c.Adjust the channel gain for the desired balance in the record output.
d.Under certain circumstances, you may find that you will need to mute this mic to reduce room noise or reverberations. Again, the only way to tell is to listen.
e.Mark the channel 10 fader at 0 so that it is not changed.
