EMX66M—Owner’s Manual
As a band PA
Here is an example of using the EMX66M as a small PA for a band. In this example, the monitor speakers are
being sent a mix that is independent of the MAIN speaker mix. An external effect such as delay or reverb is
also being used.
Connections
• Connect mics or instruments, such as keyboards,
to the channel input jacks 1–6.
• Connect the main speakers to the SPEAKERS A
1/2 jacks, and connect the monitor speakers to
the SPEAKERS B 1/2 jacks. Then, set the power
amp select switch to “MAIN-MON.”
• If you will be using an external effect such as
delay or reverb, connect the EMX66M’s EFFECT
OUT jack to the input jack of the external effect,
and connect the output jack of the external effect
to the EMX66M’s AUX IN jack.
Note: Set the power amp select switch of the POW-
ER AMP section to the “MAIN MON” position. If
you are using an external effect, we recommend that
you turn down the EFFECT RTN controls of the
MAIN and MONITOR sections. If the external ef-
fect has a stereo output, it is possible to connect its
output jacks to the LINE jacks of channels 5. How-
ever in this case, be sure that the EFFECT controls
are turned all the way down for the channels into
which the effect sound is being input. If the EFFECT
controls are raised, feedback will occur, and your
speakers may be damaged.

*1. Although this example shows an ex-
ternal effects processor and foot-
switch, which is used to turn on and
off the built-in digital effects proces-
sor, connected to the EMX66M, in
practice, only one effects processor,
internal or external, will be used at a
time, so the footswitch is not required
when using external effects.
