Master Input and Output Section

The L1200 and L2000 mixer's Master Input and 

Output section has the connectors for interfacing 

the FOOTSWITCH, MAIN OUT, MAIN 2 OUT, MAIN 

INSERT POINTS, GROUP OUTS, GROUP INSERT 

POINTS, and the AUX Send’s.

6 - AUX SEND  (1 through 3) - 1/4-inch jacks

The signals present at the AUX outputs are sent from 

the AUX bus 1, 2 and 3, which are fed from the input 

channels’ AUX 1, 2 and 3 control knobs. In a live 

sound situation, AUX 1, 2 and 3 are normally used to 

create three individual monitor mixes by connecting 

the AUX output to a power amp and monitor 

speaker. TS phone jack connector pin-out - Sleeve: 

Ground, Tip: Hot (+).

7 - EFX SEND - 1/4-inch jack

The EFX SEND output is used to send a signal to 

an external signal processor such as a delay or 

reverb.  The signal present at the EFX SEND output 

is sent from the EFX bus, which is fed from the 

input channels’ EFX control knob. TRS phone jack

8 - CD/TAPE Inputs - RCA jacks

The L Series mixers feature a stereo line level input 

on RCA connectors for connecting the output of 

devices such as MP3, CD, computer soundcard, 

cassette player, or any other line level device. These 

are controlled by the CD/Tape level control. 

9 - Record Out - RCA jacks

The signal present at this connector is the MAIN bus 

signal before it has passed through the MASTER 

level control. The nominal output level is -10dBV and 

the impedance is 100 Ohms.

10 – STEREO RETURN

The L1200 and L2000 have one pair of 1/4-inch jacks 

for connecting stereo line level sources like those 

from the outputs of effects processors. The LINE 

inputs have a nominal operating level of -40dBV 

through - 10dBV. TRS phone jack connector pin-out 

- Sleeve: Ground, Tip: Hot (+), Ring: Cold (-)

11 - MAIN 2 OUT - 1/4-inch jacks

In a live sound application, you can drive a second 

speaker system using the MAIN 2 OUT outputs con-

nected to a power amplifier or powered speakers. In 

a recording application, the MAIN 2 OUT outputs are 

used to connect to a stereo device such as computer 

sound card, MP3, or cassette recorder. The signal at 

the MAIN 2 OUT jacks follows the MAIN 2 level con-

trol knob allowing you to set a different level to the 

recorder. TR phone jack connector pin-out - Sleeve: 

Ground, Tip: Hot (+).

12 - GROUP OUT - 1/4" jacks

In a live sound application, you can connect 

additional zone speaker systems using GROUP OUT 

outputs connected to a power amplifier or powered 

speakers. The signal at the GROUP OUT jacks follows 

the GROUP volume fader.TRS phone jack connector
