75. INSERT

These 1/4" TRS jacks provide a send and return point 

for each channel. Use the INSERT jacks to connect 
serial effects devices such as compressors, equalizers, 
de-essers, or filters to each individual channel.

The INSERT points are after the GAIN and Low Cut 

controls, but before the EQ and Fader controls. The 
send (tip) is low-impedance, capable of driving any 
device. The return (ring) is high-impedance and can be 
driven by almost any device.

Special insert cables are available, specially designed 

for this kind of insert jack. They are wired as follows:

“from tip”

this plug connects to one of the 

mixer’s Channel Insert jacks.

“to ring”

tip

ring

sleeve

SEND to processor

RETURN from processor

(TRS plug)

 

Tip = Send (output to effects device) 

 

Ring = Return ( input from effects device) 

 

Sleeve = Common ground (connect shield to all  

 

three sleeves)

Besides being used for inserting external devices, 

these jacks can also be used as channel direct outputs; 
post-GAIN, post-LOW CUT, and pre-EQ. This is an unbal-
anced direct out, in contrast to the DIRECT OUTS on 
the rear panel, which are balanced direct outputs, post-
GAIN, post-INSERT, and pre-EQ.

Here are three ways you use the INSERT jacks:

Direct out with no signal interruption to master.

Insert only to first “click.”

Channel Insert jack

Channel Insert jack

Channel Insert jack

Direct out with signal interruption to master.

Insert all the way in to the second “click.”

For use as an effects loop.

(TIP = SEND to effect, RING = RETURN from effect)

76. DIRECT OUTS

Each of these DB-25 connectors provides balanced 

direct outputs for eight channels. They are designed to 
be connected directly to a recorder’s analog inputs, and 
use the TASCAM standard pinout for analog signal con-
nections (the same standard used on the analog cards 
for the Mackie D8B, DXB, and Hard Disk Recorder).

The signal at the DIRECT OUTS comes after the input 

GAIN control, Low-Cut switch, and INSERT jack, but 
before the EQ. This way you can EQ a channel and ad-
just the channel fader to suit your live mix, but it has no 
effect on the signal going to the recorder. This provides 
maximum flexibility for the mixdown stage.
