AUX MASTER SEND

Aux send signals are derived by each channel’s AUX knob, mixed together, then sent through this AUX MASTER SEND knob. Turned fully up, it provides 15 dB of additional gain, the center “U” mark is unity gain, and fully down is off.

Typically, when the talent (or lack thereof) wants a louder monitor mix, this is the knob to crank up — watch out for feedback!

EFX 1 MASTER SEND

Effects send signals are derived by each channel’s EFX 1 (EXT) knob, mixed to- gether, then sent through this EFX 1 MASTER SEND knob. Turned fully up, it provides 15 dB of additional gain, the center “U” mark is unity gain, and fully down is off.

Being that this controls only post-fader sends destined for outboard effects devices, you’ll typically set this knob near the “U” mark and then leave it alone.

EFX 1 RETURN

Stereo signals come through the EFX 1 RETURN and continue on to the MAIN MIX Fader . They contain the effects’ “wet” signals to be mixed together with the channels’ “dry” original signals. Turned fully up, it provides 15 dB of additional gain, the center “U” mark is unity gain, and fully down is off.

Being that this controls only the return signals of external effects, with their levels already determined by the channels’ EFX 1 (EXT) knob, you’ll typically set this knob near the “U” mark and then leave it alone.

ING/DEPTH and WIDE . When you find an effect you like, jot down the parameters, then goof around some more.

To mute these effects, engage BYPASS (or your foot switch if connected to EFX FOOT SWITCH ). To send these effects to the stage monitor cues, turn up the EFFECTS TO MONITOR knobs.

FOR THE CURIOUS:

EMAC™ stands for Extended Multiply and Accumulate, which is a proprietary 32-bit digital stereo processor developed by our Digital Engineering Group. It provides 16 preset digital effects algorithms for you to select. In addition to the presets, there are two parameter con-

trols () you can adjust to change the sound and make it unique for your particular application.

EFX 2 SEND

This controls the signal level being sent to the input of the EMAC module (and to the EFX SEND 2 jack). Use the EFX 2 (INT) controls on the individual channels to adjust the amount of each channel’s signal you want to go to the EMAC. Leave EFX 2 SEND set at the center “U” position. If you find that you’re not getting enough of the effect in the main mix, make sure that the TO MAIN MIX control is turned up at least to unity (the center detent position). It’s okay to turn up the EFX 2 SEND some more if you need to. Just make sure the ZERO LEVEL LED never lights more than occasionally. Read on to find out why.
