This diagram shows a mic'd up drum kit utilizing the first seven channels of the mixer. Microphones are connected to the next three channels for lead and background vocals. A guitar and bass are attached to the next two channels' line-level inputs, each via a mono effects processor. An iPod docking station is attached to the stereo tape inputs.

Mackie SRM450v2 powered speakers are connected to the left and right main output. Two of these speakers are also set up as stage monitors and connect to the mixer's monitor output via a graphic EQ. The aux mon controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix as desired. Headphones are used for monitoring and a footswitch allows you to mute/unmute the internal effects as desired.

A laptop connects to the USB port and allows the 2-channel main mix of the performance to be recorded to a DAW. Two channels of audio can also play from your computer to the main mix.
