APPLICATION 1 - LIVE SOUND REINFORCEMENT

This drawing shows a typical configuration for sound reinforcement, with the main PA fed from Mix L/R and a secondary system fed from
the Matrix outputs. The illustration shows the flexibility of the inputs to the mixer and how the direct outputs are available as sources for
a multitrack tape machine. The Aux Sends are used for reverb (Aux 5 & 6 which are pre-fade) and for artists foldback (Aux 1-4), with
Aux 3 & 4 switched globally to pre-fade.
