and SUB) with faders, meters, MUTE and AFL. Using these faders you can adjust the level of the
main PA without losing the balance between the tops and subs. The signal is not affected by the
AUX6 rotary master. However, the rotary output can still provide another sub feed with its own
independent master control.
Route all sources to LR in the usual way to feed the, main ‚top speakers. In addition, route sources
with low frequency content such as kick drum, bass, keyboards, sound effects to the sub speakers by
turning up the AUX6 send rotary on those channels. Make sure all channel aux 5-6 sends have been
set for post-fader operation. Use two crossovers, one for the stereo LR mid/top frequencies, and the
other for the sub feed. Set the system up so that the correct balance between tops and subs is
achieved when the channel send is at it ‘0’ (3 o’clock) position and the L, R and M faders in line with
each other.
AUX-Fed-Centre-Mode The same principle as above, but AUX6 is used to feed a centre mix such as
a fill or C in a LCR system. To route to C only, turn up the channel AUX6 send to 3 o’clock unity
position, and turn off its assignment switch to LR.
10.3. 7x4 Matrix
The matrix adds to the powerful multi-tasking capability of the mixing console. It
provides a set of 4 additional console outputs. It is a ‘mixer within a mixer’
creating its output from any combination of the groups, main LR mix and external
input. It can be used to provide duplicate main outputs or to create new mixes
from these outputs. The matrix controls are positioned conveniently away from
the live performance controls to avoid accidental operation.
10.3.1. EXT IN
Mixes in an external nominal 0dBu/0.77V line level source. The rotary provides
+6dB boost. Note that EXT IN jack sockets are normally (linked) in a way that lets
you plug in a mono or stereo common source to feed all the matrices, or an
independent source to each. Plug into EXT1 only to feed one source to all four
matrix EXT IN controls. Plug L into EXT1 and R into EXT2 only to feed a stereo
source to matrix 1-2 and 3-4.
Some examples include adding ambience sources to recordings and in-ear
monitoring, adding a direct output or an aux mix to quickly create a monitor from
the main mix plus selected channels and linking in another console to feed the
same PA in a festival or other dual console situation.
