OUTPUT CONNECTIONS

24. MAIN OUTPUTS 

These 1/4" TRS jacks represent the end of the mixer 

chain, where your fully mixed stereo signal enters the 

real world.

Connect these outputs to the inputs of your 

amplifi ers, powered speakers, or serial effects 

processor (graphic equalizer, for example).

25. CTRL ROOM OUTPUTS

These 1/4" TRS jacks can be used to provide 

another main mix output (with the CTRL ROOM (18) 

switch set to MAINS), or to monitor the CD/Tape Inputs 

(CTRL ROOM switch set to CD/TAPE).

Connect these outputs to the inputs of an amplifi er, 

powered speakers, or recording device.

26. AUX SEND 1 MON OUTPUT 

To create a stage monitor mix, connect this 1/4" TRS 

output into your monitor amplifi er’s input, or powered 

monitor’s input. This jack can also be used to feed the 

inputs of an effects device.

Each channel strip has an AUX 1 MON (8) send 

control knob that adjusts how much of that channel’s 

signal appears at this output. The output from this jack 

is the sum of all those active channels that have their 

AUX 1 knobs set to more than the minimum position.

This output 

is not

 affected by the channel LEVEL 

(11), or MAIN MIX (22) controls.

27. AUX SEND 2 FX OUTPUT

This 1/4" TRS output can be used to connect to the 

input of an external effects device.

Each channel strip has an AUX 2 FX (9) control that 

adjusts how much of that channel’s signal appears 

at this output. The output from this jack is the mix of all 

those active channels that have their AUX 2 knobs set 

more than minimum.

This output 

is

 affected by the channel LEVEL (11), 

but not the MAIN MIX (22) control.

Note:

 Since this output is post-channel EQ and 

LEVEL, it is not used as a traditional stage monitor cue. 

It is intended to patch into an effects device’s input, 

hence the name FX.

28. TAPE OUTPUTS 

Use these jacks to capture the entire performance to 

tape. The signal at these jacks is a sample of the main 

mix, as it appears at the MAIN (24) output. The TAPE 

OUTPUT level is affected by the MAIN MIX (22) control.

29. PHONES OUTPUT 

The stereo signal at this output jack is the same as 

the CTRL ROOM (25) outputs, but it is not affected by 

the position of the CTRL ROOM (19) knob. You can 

listen to the main mix, or the CD/TAPE, depending 

upon the position of the CTRL ROOM (18) switch.

The PHONES (20) control allows you to set the levels 

in your headphones as desired, without disturbing the 

main mix or control room levels.

Note:

 Be very careful because 

the PHONES jack can drive any 

standard headphones to very 

loud levels. Please see page 2 for 

information on hearing protection. 

See Appendix B for information about 1/4" TRS 

stereo connectors.

30. POWER SWITCH

Push the side of the switch labeled “

ON

” to turn the 

mixer on; you should see the 

POWER 

LED (16) glow 

with happiness. To turn the mixer off, push the switch 

the other way.

As a general rule, turn the mixer on fi rst, before any 

amplifi ers or powered speakers. At the end of a show, 

turn it off last. This will prevent any turn-on or turn-off 

thumps from being heard in the speakers.

31. POWER IN

This connection is where you connect the supplied 

external AC power supply to provide AC power to 

the mixer. Connect the external power supply to the 

Blend 6 fi rst, then plug the power supply into a suitable 

and properly rated AC outlet.

WARNING:

 Make sure you use the correct external 

power supply capable of providing 9 VDC at 1.5 amps.
