ENDS
To activate the Cue or FX sends, press on its gain pot and turn up the gain. The Stereo Cue signal is
normally sourced pre-fader – to move it to after the fader, press POST . The stereo cue also has a pan
control.
There are two stereo cue busses and four FX busses. Each channel can feed one of the stereo cue busses
and two of the FX busses (FX1 or 3, FX2 or 4). Any send can instead control the EFX system, which
uses auxiliary sends to control the level of the channel’s feed to the track busses or direct output – use
the CUE B , FX3 , FX4 and EFX switches to select between sends.
