76. TALKBACK MIC IN

This is where you plug in your external talkback microphone. This female XLR connector does not have phantom power, so use a dynamic microphone or a self- powered condenser microphone.

80. MAIN INSERT

These 1/4" TRS jacks are for connecting serial effects such as compressors, equalizers, deessers, or filters. The insert point is after the mix amps, but before the MAIN MIX faders. Refer to the description of the channel insert on page 21 to see how to make this connection.

77. TALKBACK LINE OUT

This 1/4" TRS output connector provides a balanced or unbalanced line-level signal for connecting to the input of an external intercom system or other line-level device.

78. MONO OUT

This male XLR output connector provides a balanced line-level signal that is a combination of the left and right MAIN OUT signals (L+R). You can use this for a separate mix that doesn’t require a stereo feed, or to simply test the monaural compatibility of your stereo mix.

79. LEFT/RIGHT MAIN OUTS

There are two sets of outputs for the Left/Right Main Outputs: Male XLR connectors that provide balanced line-level signals and 1/4" TRS connectors that provide balanced or unbalanced line-level signals. Each XLR connector is in parallel with its corresponding 1/4" TRS connector, and carries exactly the same signal.

This represents the end of the mixer chain, where your fully mixed stereo signal enters the real world. Connect these to the inputs of your main power ampli- fiers, powered speakers, or serial effects processor (like a graphic equalizer or compressor/limiter).

81. MONITOR OUT

These 1/4" TRS jacks provide a balanced line-level signal that can be used to provide another main mix output (with MAIN MIX TO MON/PHONES selected in the PHONES/ MONITOR Section), or to monitor soloed channels.

Connect these outputs to the inputs of an amplifier, powered speaker, headphone distribution amplifier, or recording device.

82. MATRIX OUT

These 1/4" TRS jacks provide balanced line-level signals for the MATRIX A and B mixes. These can be connected to the inputs of an amplifier, powered speaker, headphone distribution amplifier, or recording device.

83. REDUNDANT POWER SUPPLY Connector

This is where you connect the optional Onyx PS External Redundant Power Supply. Normally, the Onyx 80 Series operates on its built-in universal power sup- ply. With the Onyx PS connected, in the unlikely event that the internal power supply should fail, the external supply will seamlessly take over powering the Onyx 80 Series mixing console.

This provides an extra measure of insurance that the show will go on.
