Mono Input Channel 1

AUX Send Features

Six auxiliary Sends are available for creating individual output mixes. These can be used to drive effects processors, provide monitor mixes, create broadcast or alternate sound reinforcement mixes, or for other special requirements.

NOTE: Normally, the signal feeding the Aux Sends is derived after the chan fader (Post-Fader). The fader controls the level of the chan signal feeding the individual Aux Send pots. Each Aux Send pot is then used to generate a sub-mix of this channel signal.This Post-fader signal feeding the Auxes is also affected by the Mute switch; if the channel is muted, the Aux Send no longer receives a signal.There are many cases where an independent mix is desired, and the operator doesn’t want the Chan fader to affect the signal.The 3 PRE switches allow the operator to change the source to each pair of Auxes from the normal post-fader signal to a signal unaffected by the fader. The default PRE setting is pre-fader, but it is still post-insert/post-EQ/post-Mute. An internal setting (per channel) can be changed so that this PRE source becomes either pre-insert or pre- EQ.An additional jumper allows this PRE setting to also be independent of the channel mute.

Aux Sends 1 & 2

Auxes 1 and 2 are permanently configured as a stereo pair. The upper knob controls the level and the lower knob is the PAN control.This stereo aux send can be used for any type of stereo feed from the console, such as live two-track recording, stereo in-ear monitors, alternate stereo feed for broadcast and stereo signal processors. By properly using the pan control Auxes 1 and 2 can also be used as discrete mono Aux buses.

Auxes 3, 4, 5, & 6 are configured as discrete mono aux sends.They are typically used to feed signal processors and for on-stage monitors.
