4 Select the input channel for the return signal.
Push the
INT. EFFECT RTN
switch in to send the
return signal to channels 15-16. Leave the switch out
(do not press it in) to send the return signal to chan-
nels 13-14.
CAUTION
Do not connect anything to the STEREO IN jack when
using channels 15-16 for the return signal. Doing so cuts
(mutes) the return signal.
When connecting an iPod or other device to the STEREO
IN jack on channels 15-16, set the INT. EFFECT RTN switch
to channels 13-14 to send the return signal to these
channels.
5 Turn the
ST
switch ON for the input channel receiv-
ing the return signal, and use its fader to adjust
return levels.
When using AUX 1 for stage or cue monitoring, if you
want to monitor the sound with the effect applied, turn
the TO AUX 1 switch ON for the input channel receiving
the return signal.
Using external effects
External effects can also be used with this mixer.
Channels 1–6, 7-8 and 9-10 can have an external effect
applied by sending their signals to the external effect
through the AUX 1or AUX 2 bus. The return signal can be
input into any other channels as desired.
In the following explanation, the signals are sent through
the AUX 2 bus to an external effect, and the return signals
are received by channels 13-14.
• When sending signals to an external effect through
AUX 1, turn the PRE switch OFF to send the post fader
signal.
• When receiving external effect signals back through
channels 13-14, do not set the internal effect return
to channels 13-14 (by setting the INT. EFFECT RTN
switch to CH 13-14).
• If the AUX 2 bus is used to send signals to an external
effect, the AUX 1 bus can still be used for monitoring.
• By sending AUX 1 to an external effect and AUX 2 to
the internal effect, two types of effects can be used.
First, connect the input jack of the external effect to the
AUX SEND 2
jack first, and connect the external effect
output jacks to the L/R input jacks of mixer channels 13-14.
