Fig. 2.10: Subgroup outputs 1 - 4

(28)These four SUBGROUP OUT (puts) carry the signals of the individual subgroups. For multi-tracking connect the outputs to the inputs of a multi-track recorder (see chapter 4.1 “Studio set-up”).

2.5Mono out section for subwoofer applications

Using this auxiliary mono output you can route the main mix signal to a separate power amp. The tunable low-pass filter allows you to limit the signal content to the low-frequency range to get a perfect subwoofer signal. This signal is mono because very low frequencies disperse quickly, so there would be no benefit to position this signal in the stereo mix.

Fig. 2.11: Mono out fader and low-pass filter

(29)The MONO fader controls the volume of the signal present at the MONO OUT (see (32)).

(30)The FREQ control adjusts the cut-off frequency of the low- pass filter (30 to 200 Hz). Frequencies above cut-off are filtered out when activated.

(31)Use the LOW PASS FILTER switch to activate the filter function (LED illuminates).

Fig. 2.12: Mono out connector

(32)The MONO OUT connector provides the line-level mono signal for connection to the inputs of a power amp or active speaker. You can also use this output as a monitor bus, e.g. to connect a headphone amplifier. In this case, the signal should of course not be limited by the low-pass filter.

2.6 Main out section

Fig. 2.13: Main out fader

(33)Use this high-precision MAIN fader to control the output level of the main mix.

Fig. 2.14: XLR main out connectors

(34)The MAIN OUT(puts) are balanced XLR connectors with a nominal operating level of +4 dBu and provide the main mix signal.

Fig. 2.15: Main out connectors and main insert

(35)The MAIN OUT 1/4" TRS connectors outputs also provide the main mix signal.

(36)Like the channel inserts, the MAIN INSERT connectors can be used to connect a dynamics processor or equalizer for further processing of the mix signal. The MAIN INSERT refers to the Main Outs (XLR and 1/4" TRS connectors), the MONO OUT (see (32)) and, if the MAIN switch in the PHONES/CONTROL ROOM section is pressed, also to the PHONES/CTRL ROOM output (see (46)).
