ST 2/AUX switch
Set this to
ST 2
to send the input signals directly to the
ST 2/AUX buss after being adjusted by the
ST 2/AUX
knobs. Since this has no effect on the signals sent to
the ST 1 buss, this unit can be used as mixer with two
independent stereo busses.
Set this to
AUX
to send the signals to the ST 2/AUX
buss after being adjusted by the ST 1 and then the
ST 2/
AUX
knobs. Set this way, ST 1 can be used as the main
buss and ST 2/AUX can be used as an AUX send.
