Stereo aux return connectors

2.3.3  

STEREO AUX RETURN 1

The 

STEREO AUX RETURN 1

 connectors 

generally serve as the return path for the 
effects mix generated using the post-fader aux 
send. This is where you connect the output 
signal of the external effects device. If only 
the left connector is used, the AUX RETURN 
automatically operates in mono.

You can also use these connectors as 

◊ 

additional line inputs.

STEREO AUX RETURN 2

The 

STEREO AUX RETURN 2

 connectors serve as the return path for the effects 

mix generated using the FX control. If these connectors already function as 
additional inputs, you can route the effects signal back into the console via a 
different channel, with the added benefit that the channel EQ can be used to 
adjust the frequency response of the effects return signal.

In this instance, the FX control of the channel being used as an effects 

◊ 

return should be turned fully counterclockwise, otherwise feedback 
problems could occur!

If you wish to use the internal effects processor, no connectors should be 

◊ 

plugged into STEREO AUX RETURN 2.

Stereo aux return

2.3.4  

STEREO AUX RETURN 1

STEREO AUX RETURN 1

 is a stereo control which 

determines the level of the signal in the main 
mix. If STEREO AUX RETURN 1 is used as effects 
return, you can add the effects signal to any “dry” 
channel signal.

In this instance, the effects device should 

◊ 

be set at 100% effect.

STEREO AUX RETURN MON

The 

STEREO AUX RETURN MON 

control has a special function: it can be used to 

add an effect to a monitor mix. For example:

Monitor mix with effect

In this instance, the effects device should be set up as follows: AUX SEND 2 is 
connected to the L/Mono input of your effects device, while its outputs are 
connected to STEREO AUX RETURN 1. Connect the amplifier of your monitor system 
to AUX SEND 1. The AUX SEND 1 master control determines the volume of the 
monitor mix.

You can now use the STEREO AUX RETURN MON control to adjust the level of the 
effects signal routed to the monitor mix.

You can easily use the headphones distribution amplifier BEHRINGER POWERPLAY 
PRO HA4600/HA4700/HA8000 to provide you with four (or eight with the HA8000) 
stereo headphone mixes for your studio.

STEREO AUX RETURN 2 (FX)

The STEREO AUX RETURN 2 control determines the level of signals fed into the 
AUX  RETURN 2 connectors which are routed to the main mix.

MAIN MIX/ALT 3-4

The MAIN MIX/ALT 3-4 switch routes the signal connected to STEREO AUX RETURN 2 
to either main mix (not pressed) or submix (Alt 3-4, pressed).

Tape input / tape output

2.3.5  

CD/TAPE INPUT

The 

CD/TAPE INPUT 

RCA connectors are provided 

for connecting a 2 track machine (e.g. DAT 
recorder). They can also be used as stereo line input. 
Alternatively, the output signal of a second XENYX 
or BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO MX882 can also be 
connected. If you connect a hi-fi amplifier with a 
source selection switch to the CD/TAPE INPUT, you can 
easily switch between additional sources (e.g. cassette recorder, CD player, etc.).

CD/TAPE OUTPUT

These connectors are wired in parallel with the MAIN OUT and carry the main 
mix signal (unbalanced). Connect the 

CD/TAPE OUTPUT

 to the inputs of your 

recording device. The final output level can be adjusted via the high-precision 
MAIN MIX fader.

If you connect a compressor or a noise gate after the 2-track 

◊ 

output, the faders will probably not be able to create a satisfactory 
fade-out effect.

Level meter and monitoring

2.3.6  

Fig. 2.11: Control room/phones section, level meter

CD/TAPE

The 

TAPE

 switch routes the signal from the TAPE IN connectors to the level meter, 

the CONTROL ROOM OUT outputs and the PHONES connector this is a simple way 
to  check recorded signals via monitor speakers or headphones.

ALT 3-4

Similarly, the 

ALT 3-4 

switch routes the signal from the 

Alt 3-4 bus to the same path for monitoring purposes.

MAIN MIX

The 

MAIN MIX 

switch sends the main mix signal to the above-mentioned outputs 

and to the level meter.

PHONES/CTRL R(oom)

Use this control to set control room output level and head-phones 
volume respectively.
