In this example, the Mix 1 knob
controls the level of the preamp,
and the Mix 2 knob controls the
level of the entire mix. Please
refer to Section 3.3 to correctly set
levels.
System #2
This is a system that demonstrates a two
stage effects system. This allows certain
effects to affect other ones. Traditionally,
the final effects are delays or reverbs that
you want to affect the entire signal.
1. The guitar is connected to the amp or preamp
input. The preamp output or amp effect send is
connected to the Left volume control input.
2. The signal comes out of the volume control and is fed into Mix 1 In 1 Left. (If you don't want to
use the volume control, then connect the amp directly to Mix 1 In 1.) The
passive split sends copies of the preamp signal to the mono inputs of the
effects devices.
3.
The stereo outputs of the effects are brought back to the mixer to
be blended with the original preamp tone. For FX 1 and 2, we will use In
2 and In 3 of Mix 1. These effects will be blended in parallel with the
original preamp tone.
4.
Next, the two stereo Mix 1
Outs are used to drive the second
stage effects. FX 3 and 4 will be
affecting all of Mix 1 (the preamp
signal
and
the outputs of FX 1 and
2). Remember, the Mix 1 signal is
also sent to Mix 2 via the internal connection. The stereo outputs of FX 3 and 4 are brought back
to the mixer (In 2 and In 3 of Mix 2) to be blended with the original Mix 1 signal.
5.
Mix 2 Outs are connected to the power amp input, or the
amp effect return.
