MAIN AUX RETURNS (A1–A4)
Point Before: Balanced or unbalanced line-
level cable with
1
⁄
4
" TRS or TS connector,
(tip = hot, ring = cold, sleeve = shield).
Point After:
MAIN AUX RETURNS (A1–A4)
.
The left jack’s signal is normalled to the right
jack — a mono signal, patched into the left jack
only, appears on the left and right sides.
Since the
MAIN AUX RETURNS (A1–A4)
are
actually stereo channels with full routing and
EQ
, patch in the outputs of your essential
effects devices (or any line-level signals) here.
These signals can be sent to any mix, including
the
AUX SEND MASTERS
, making them
ideal for sending effects to the stage monitors.
Similarly, essential mono effects outputs (one
cable) should be patched into a mono Channel.
“B” AUX RETURNS
Point Before: Balanced or unbalanced line-
level cable with
1
⁄
4
" TRS or TS connector,
(tip = hot, ring = cold, sleeve = shield).
Point After:
“B” AUX RETURNS
.
The left jack’s signal is normalled to the right
jack — a mono signal, patched into the left jack
only, will appear on the left and right sides.
Since
AUX RETURNS B1
,
B2
and
B3
can be
assigned only to the
LEFT/RIGHT
mix, and
B4
only to the
CENTER
mix, patch the outputs of ef-
fects devices (or any line-level signals) that need
to go only to these destinations. If you need full
routing but you’ve already used all four of the
MAIN AUX RETURNS (A1–A4)
, you can also
patch into two Channels, panning one left and
the other right.
