EURORACK UB502/UB802/UB1002/UB1202
device will then have to be brought back into the console via a
normal stereo channel. This does, however, give you the ability
to use the channel EQ on the effects return signal if you wish.
+When using a stereo channel as effects return path,
the FX control of the relevant channel should
generally be turned fully down to avoid undesirable
feedback.
If only the left connector is used, the AUX RETURN automatically
operates in mono. Use the AUX RET(URN) control to determine
how much of the effects signal is sent to the main mix.
FX SEND
The FX SEND output (does not apply for UB502) should be
connected to the input of an external effects unit. The post-
fader FX signal you created using the input channel FX controls
is sent to the effects unit via the FX SEND ouput. Use the FX
SEND control of the main section to adjust the overall send level
(UB1002 and UB1202 only).

PHONES/CONTROL ROOM
The stereo PHONES jack (at the top of the connector panel) is
where you connect headphones. The unbalanced CONTROL
ROOM OUT jacks carry the summed effects and main mix signals,
as well as soloed channel signals. The PHONES/CONTROL ROOM
control adjusts the level of both headphones and main monitor
outputs. The UB502 is not equipped with control room outputs.
MAIN MIX
The MAIN OUT connectors are unbalanced mono jacks. The
main mix signal appears here at a level of 0 dBu. The MAIN MIX
fader adjusts the volume of these outputs. The EURORACK UB802
and UB502 mixing consoles feature a rotary control for this purpose.
2.3.3 Tape connectors
TAPE INPUT
The TAPE INPUTs are used to bring an external signal source
(e.g. CD player, tape deck, etc.) into the console. They can also
be used as a standard stereo line input, so the output of a
second EURORACK or BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO MX882 can
be connected.
Fig. 2.11: Tape input/output
Alternatively the line or tape output of a hi-fi amplifier with
source selection switch could also be hooked up here, allowing
you to easily listen to additional sources.
TAPE OUTPUT
These connectors are wired in parallel with the MAIN OUT and
carry the main mix signal (unbalanced). Connect the TAPE
OUTPUT to the inputs of your recording device. The output level
is adjusted via the high-precision MAIN MIX fader or rotary
control (UB802).
