MIC

This diagram shows an electric guitar connected to the channel 1 line iput input via an amplifier modeller, a bass guitar connected directly to channel 2 (hi-z switch in), microphones connected to channel 3 and 4 mic inputs, a drum machine connected to channel 5-6 stereo line inputs, and a keyboard connected to channel 11-12 stereo line inputs. An iPod dock connects to the tape input.

A dynamics processor is connected to the insert jack of channel 2 to work its magic on your bass. Vocal compressors are connected to the channel 3 and 4 inserts.

A delay processor receives a mono input from aux 2 send (in post-fader mode), and its stereo outputs connect to the stereo aux 1 return inputs.

A plethora of SRM450v2 powered speakers are strewn across the stage as monitors for the band; they are connected to the aux 1 send jack (in pre-fader mode). Headphones are used to monitor levels.

The club is driven by connecting quad HD1801 powered subwoofers and a pair of HD1531 powered speakers to the main left and right outputs.

A laptop computer connects to a FireWire port, allowing the 2-channel main mix, individual channels, and the aux sends to be recorded. Two channels can be played back from your audio production software. These can enter as either a source for the control room and phones, or channels 11 and 12.
