question  somewhat  in  order  to  avoid  feedback.  The  graphic

stereo equalizer has to be turned on in order to use this function.

+

Logically,  at  least  one  (ideally  several)  microphone

channels have to be open for feedback to occur at all!

Feedback  is  particularly  common  when  stage  monitors

(“wedges”)  are  concerned,  because  monitors  project  sound  in

the direction of microphones. Therefore, you can also use the

FBQ Feedback Detection for monitors by placing the equalizer in

the monitor bus (see MAIN MIX/MONITOR).

4. DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR

99 ORIGINAL VIRTUALIZER

® 

PRESETS

Here  is  an  overview  of  all  of  the  multi-effects

processor’s presets. This effects module gives you

various  standard  effects,  such  as  reverb,  chorus,

flanger, delay and various combination effects that

have  already  shown  what  they  can  do  in  our  19"

effects processor, the VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP2024P. The aux

send 

FX

 in the channels and the aux send 

FX

 master control

allow  you  to  feed  the  effects  processor  with  signals.

 

Fig.  4.1:  Digital  effects  module

The built-in stereo effects processor has the advantage that it

does  not  need  to  be  wired  up.  This  excludes  the  danger  of

humming  or  level  mismatch  right  from  the  start  and  thus

considerably  facilitates  use.

FX  parallel

These  effect  presets  are  classical  “mixing  effects”.  If  you

move the STEREO AUX RETURN FX control, you mix the channel

signal (dry) and the effect signal. You can control the balance

between the two signals with the channel fader and the STEREO

AUX RETURN FX control.

INS(ERT) FX (NO CH. ROUTING)

The  right  column  contains  effect  presets  that  are  used  for

complete signal processing. This should not be confused with

adding an effect to a dry channel signal. If you are using these

presets, you should not route the “dry” channel to the main bus

or the subgroups (MAIN switch and SUB switch next to channel

fader). Instead, you should route only the effects signal to the

main mix or subgroups (STEREO AUX RETURN FX control).

FX OUT

Mixing consoles UB2222FX-PRO and UB2442FX-PRO have a

separate output for the effects device, which is unbalanced and

stereo  (tip  =  left  signal;  ring  =  right  signal;  sleeve  =  ground/

shielding).  Thus,  you  can  record,  for  example,  a  vocal  track

enhanced  with  reverb  in  parallel  to  a  “dry”  vocal  track;  when

doing the mix-down later on, you can freely determine the amount

of  reverb  added.

+

The UB2442FX-PRO has the effect output on the rear,

UB2222FX-PRO  has  it  located  next  to  the  aux  sends

on  the  front  panel.

FX FOOTSW.

Connect  a  standard  foot  switch  to  the  foot  switch  jack  and

use this to switch the effects processor on and off. A light at the

bottom  of  the  display  indicates  wheater  the  effects  processor

has been muted by the foot switch.

+

In  Chapter  6.2  you  will  find  an  illustration  showing

how  to  connect  your  foot  switch  correctly.

LEVEL

The LED level meter on the effects module should display a

sufficiently high level. Take care to ensure that the clip LED only

lights up at peak levels. If it is lit constantly, you are overloading

the effects processor and this could cause unpleasant distortion.

PROGRAM

You  can  select  the  effect  preset  by  turning  the 

PROGRAM

control. The display flashes with the number of the current preset.

To recall the selected preset, press on the button; the flashing

stops.  You  can  also  recall  the  selected  preset  with  the  foot

switch.

5.1 Main mix outputs, insert points and

control room outputs

Fig. 5.1: Main Mix outputs, main mix insert points and

control  room  outputs

MAIN OUTPUTS

The 

MAIN

  outputs  carry  the  MAIN  MIX  signal  and  are  on

balanced XLR jacks with a nominal level of +4 dBu. In parallel

with this, 1/4" phone jacks carry the main mix signal in a balanced

format  (UB1622FX-PRO:  here,  the  phone  jack  outputs  are

unbalanced and located on the front panel).

CONTROL ROOM OUTPUTS (CTRL OUT)

The control room output is normally connected to the monitoring

system in the control room and carries the stereo mix or, when

selected, the solo signals.

MAIN INS(ERTS) (UB2442FX-PRO only)

These are the insert points for the main mix. In the signal path,

they are post-main mix amp, but pre-main fader(s). Use them to

insert, for example, a dynamics processor or graphic equalizer.

Please also note the information on insert points in chapter 5.3.

5.2 Subgroup outputs

Fig. 5.2: Subgroup outputs

SUB OUTPUTS

The subgroup outputs are unbalanced and provide the mix of

those channels assigned to each subgroup with the SUB switch

(UB2442FX-PRO: switches 1-2 or 3-4) next to the channel faders.

Thus, you can, for example, route a subgroup to a second console
