MASTER I/O Section
1
RETURN Jacks (1, 2)
These are unbalanced phone input jacks. The signal into each
of these jacks feeds into the ST bus and into AUX buses 1 to 4.
These jacks are typically used to receive a return signal from an
external effector (reverb, delay, etc.).
These jacks can also be used as an auxiliary stereo
input. If you connect to the L (MONO) jack only, the
mixer will recognize the signal as monaural and will
propagate the identical signal from both L and R
jacks.
2
2TR IN Jacks
These unbalanced RCA-pin input jacks can be used to input a
stereo sound source. The signal into each of these jacks feeds
into the ST bus. Use these jacks when you want to connect a
stereo sound source (such as a CD player or DAT deck) directly
to the mixer for monitoring.
3
REC OUT (L, R) Jacks
These are unbalanced RCA-pin output jacks. By connecting
these jacks to an external recorder, you can record the same
signal that is being output from the ST OUT jacks.
The signal from these jacks is not adjusted by the
ST master fader and is not affected by input or out-
put at the INSERT I/O jacks. When using these
jacks to record, adjust the level as necessary at the
external recording device.

SEND Jacks
• AUX Jacks (1 to 6)
These are impedance-balanced phone jacks. These jacks out-
put the signals from AUX1 to AUX6, respectively. You use
these jacks, for example, to connect to a monitoring system,
effector, or other such equipment.
• EFFECT Jacks (1, 2)
These impedance-balanced phone jacks output the signals
from the EFFECT buses. You would typically use these jacks
to connect to an external effector.
5
GROUP INS I/O Jacks (1 to 4)
These are unbalanced TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) phone-type bidi-
rectional jacks. You can use these jacks to connect individual
groups to devices such as graphic equalizers, compressors, and
noise filters.
Connection to an INSERT I/O jack requires a spe-
cial separately-sold insertion cable such as illus-
trated below.
6
GROUP OUT Jacks (1 to 4)
These are impedance-balanced phone output jacks. These jacks
output the signals from GROUP buses 1 to 4. Use these jacks to
connect to the input jacks of MTRs, external mixers, and other
such devices.
