99 ORIGINAL VIRTUALIZER® PRESETS
Here is an overview of all of the
Fig. 4.1: Digital effects module
The
FX parallel
These effect presets are classical “mixing effects”. If you move the STEREO AUX RETURN FX control, you mix the channel signal (dry) and the effect signal. You can control the balance between the two signals with the channel fader and the STEREO AUX RETURN FX control.
INS(ERT) FX (NO CH. ROUTING)
The right column contains effect presets that are used for complete signal processing. This should not be confused with adding an effect to a dry channel signal. If you are using these presets, you should not route the “dry” channel to the main bus or the subgroups (MAIN switch and SUB switch next to channel fader). Instead, you should route only the effects signal to the main mix or subgroups (STEREO AUX RETURN FX control).

+The
FX FOOTSW.
Connect a standard foot switch to the foot switch jack and use this to switch the effects processor on and off. A light at the bottom of the display indicates wheater the effects processor has been muted by the foot switch.
+In Chapter 6.2 you will find an illustration showing how to connect your foot switch correctly.
LEVEL
The LED level meter on the effects module should display a sufficiently high level. Take care to ensure that the clip LED only lights up at peak levels. If it is lit constantly, you are overloading the effects processor and this could cause unpleasant distortion.
PROGRAM
You can select the effect preset by turning the PROGRAM control. The display flashes with the number of the current preset.
To recall the selected preset, press on the button; the flashing stops. You can also recall the selected preset with the foot switch.

5.1Main mix outputs, insert points and control room outputs
Fig. 5.1: Main Mix outputs, main mix insert points and
control room outputs
MAIN OUTPUTS
The MAIN outputs carry the MAIN MIX signal and are on balanced XLR jacks with a nominal level of +4 dBu. In parallel with this, 1/4" phone jacks carry the main mix signal in a balanced format
CONTROL ROOM OUTPUTS
The control room output is normally connected to the monitoring system in the control room and carries the stereo mix or, when selected, the solo signals.
MAIN INS(ERTS)
These are the insert points for the main mix. In the signal path, they are
5.2 Subgroup outputs

SUB OUTPUTS
The subgroup outputs are unbalanced and provide the mix of those channels assigned to each subgroup with the SUB switch
