pair of audio outputs as long as no cables are connected to the Return jacks.

Plugging a cable into the Return jack will interrupt the signal heard in the mix outputs (headphones and rear-panel line outputs) and will complete the signal path.

Note: The insert Send/Return loop includes the auxiliary Mix In signal in the processing path.

Signal Flow

As seen in the diagram below (from left to right):

•A-Net audio is mixed using the A-16R

•Signals from the stereo Mix In jacks are mixed in with the sixteen-channel A-Net mix

•The mix goes to the Insert Send/Return loop

•An effects device processes the mix and returns the result to the A-16R via the Return jack

•The processed signal from the Insert is combined to create the final mix that you hear

Mix In

The A-16R includes a convenient auxiliary stereo mix input. The input has its own front-panel level control. Signals connected to the Mix In are added to the stereo mix in the analog domain, at the point where the digital mix is converted back to an analog signal.
