Setting up the monitors
Connect the amps of the monitor-speakers (or headphone pre-amps) to the
analog output 1 to 4. Analog output 1 goes to the singer, analog output 2
goes to the bass guitarist, analog output 3 goes to the rhythm guitarist, and
analog output 4 goes to the drummer.
Software routing
Open the UCON CX Output Control and perform the following changes:
On output analog 1-2 under “SOURCE” push “AUX 1-2”, on analog output
3-4 the “SOURCE”-button “AUX 3-4”. Now deactivate the “LINK”-button
for both outputs and position faders 1 to 4 to “-6”dB.
Setting up the monitor volumes
In order for the singer to hear himself on the speaker or on his headphones
– simply pull up “AUX 1” on his channel in the UCON CX Mixer (analog
input 1). In order for the singer to hear the bass guitarist, also “AUX 1” has
to be pulled up in that channel (analog input 2). Hence: in order for the bass
guitarist to hear himself – simply pull up “AUX 2” at his channel (analog
input 2). In order for the bass guitarist to hear the singer, “AUX 2” has to
be pulled up at channel analog input 1. This way you can achieve, that the
bass guitarist hears himself louder that the singer, while the singer hears
himself louder than the bass guitarist.
Proceed similar with all remaining signals/channels. Every channel having
“AUX 3” pulled up, is hearable for the guitarist. Wherever “AUX 4” is
pulled up, the drummer can hear this signal.
Finalizing
If you set up perfect monitor mixes for every musician independently, it
could be that one asks you to increase or decrease his personal mix in
volume. This can easily be done with the unlinked faders of the Output
Control.
Important note: For the volumes of the channels going to the master sum
(the signal of the concert hall) to be leveled independently of the monitor
mixes of the musicians, all pre buttons have to be activated for all used aux
busses!
