MID
11
This is a peaking filter and it will boost/cut frequencies from 100 Hz to 8 kHz depending on the position of the
MID freq control. Setting the frequency control on lower frequencies, this control will affect the range of fun-
damental frequencies of most instruments, including human voices, as well as some harmonics when set to
higher frequencies.
HI-MID
12
This control gives you up to 15 dB boost or cut at 3 kHz. It is useful for controlling voice. Making the perform-
ance brighter.
MID-LOW
13
This control gives you up to 15 dB boost or cut at 500 Hz.
LOW
14
Turning this control up, all the frequencies below 80 Hz will be boosted. You will give more punch to bass drum
and bass guitar and make the vocalist more ”macho”. Turning it down, you will cut all the frequencies below
80 Hz. In this way, you can avoid low-frequency vibrations and resonance thus preserving the life of your
woofers.
AUX sends level control
15
These four controls are used to adjust the level of the respective signal sent to the AUX bus. AUX1 and AUX2
can be switched to PRE/POST-FADER via the PRE/POST button, so, generally, they‘re used PRE-FADER
for monitor application and POST-FADER for effect units. AUX3 and AUX4 are configured as POST-Faders.
Generally speaking, the users of this unit will use the onboard DSP effect module setting AUX send 4.
Alternatively, it‘s possible to connect an external effect unit input to EFX2 SEND connector.
PAN/BAL control
16
Abbreviation of PANORAMA control for mono channels, allowing to set the stereo signal front. Keeping
this control in central position, the signal will be equal in both left and right speakers. Stereo channels have
BALANCE control, similar to your hi-fi set control.
PEAK LED
17
Inside your Mix 1832 FX mixer, the audio signal is treated in several different stages and then sent to the
PEAK LED. When the LED is red illuminated, it warns you that you are reaching signal saturation and possible
distortion. To avoid distortion you should reduce the GAIN, EQ, or LEVEL settings.
MUTE button & LED
18
Each channel is equipped with a MUTE button. Pressing this button is equal to turning the fader down, which
can mute the corresponding channel output except for the channel INSERT send and SOLO (in Pre-Fader-
Liste mode, PFL). And the MUTE LED will illuminate.
ASSIGNMENT controls
19
Each channel provides four push-buttons: SUB1-2, SUB3-4, MAIN L-R and SOLO. Pressing the SOLO button,
the corresponding SOLO LED will illuminate and the SOLO signal will replace other signals send to the head-
phone/control room and meters. Usually use the SOLO function in live work to preview channels before they
are let into the mix. It is useful to set an instrument‘s input level and EQ, and you can also solo any channel
that you want to. The SOLO switch never affects any mix other than the control room. The other three buttons
are signal assignment switches. Pressing the SUB1-2 will assign the channel signal to subgroup 1/2, using
the PAN knob you can adjust the amount of channel signal sent to the SUB1 versus SUB2, completely turning
the PAN to left, the signal will be adressed to subgroup1 only and vice -versa. In the same way, pressing the
SUB3-4 or MAIN L/R will assign the channel signal to subgroup 3/4 or main mix L/R, and this setting too will be
affected by PAN.
FADER
20
This fader will adjust the overall level of this channel and set the amount of signal send to SUB1-2, SUB3-4,
and main L-R outputs.
