4.4. Sending to external effects units, AUX SEND
The AC-6’s 6 channels wear rotating potentiometers (11) which allow to send signals to an
external effects unit, sampler, delay, … These potentiometers dose the signal level which has to be sent
from each channel. The AUX SEND output (45) has to be connected to the input of the effects unit,
whose outputs can be connected either to the AUX RETURN input (46) or to any LINE input.
Using the PRE/POST switch (10), the send signal can be configured to be influenced or not by
the channel’s fader.
The AC-6 also wears the AUX SEND (25) and AUX RETURN (36) potentiometers, which allow
adjusting the main send and returning levels. Furthermore, the mixer has a PFL switch for the AUX
RETURN signal.
4.5. Using the XFADER
The AC-6 wears a sliding, short-distance, horizontally displayed potentiometer. This
potentiometer, called XFADER (34), is able to make direct transitions between the signals present at
any of the channels. This allows the DJ to prepare his mixes and switch from one signal to another just
using the XFADER.
The AC-6 wears the “XF SHAPE” potentiometer (35) to adjust the XFADER’s curve, which allows
to make soft fades between musical tracks or fast and short scratch-like fades.
A handle selector with three positions (12) located under the PFL switch allows to assign any
input to the position A or B of the XFADER. If the XFADER’s position “OFF” is selected, the signal goes
directly to the main mixing bus.
The AC-6 XFADER wears an electronic VCA circuit which increases considerably the life span.
4.6. Talkover
Using the MIC 5 (15) and MIC 6 (22) buttons, the talkover function is activated for the channels 5
and 6, reducing automatically the level of the signals present on the other channels. This happens when
the DJ or the speaker begins to talk into the connected micro. When the speaker stops talking, the
original volume is gradually recovered.
The ATT potentiometer (19) allows to control the attenuation level of the main signal (between 0
and 30dB) and with the TIME knob (18) the release time is controlled, which is the time necessary to
return progressively to the original level (between 0,5 and 2 seconds).
