Like the audio compressor on the input channels there is an audio compressor control-

ling the signal to the internal effects generator. This compressor acts like an automatic

gain circuit making sure that the optimum audio signal enters the internal effects gen-

erator. If the EFX Send Clip LED blinks occasionally then you have the maximum amount of

compression. If the Clip LED remains on for longer periods then you should turn down the

EFX Send level until the LED blinks occasionally.

It is possible to use the internal digital effects and an external effects unit at the same

time. You can set one effects unit for reverb, and the other unit for a special effect not

used often like echo. Connect a cable from the EFX Send jack to the input of your effects

unit. Then connect a cable from the output of your effects unit into the Stereo Return

jacks. You will use the Stereo Return fader to control the level of the external effects.

5. Footswitch Jack

Connect a standard footswitch to the Footswitch jack (e.g. Yorkville Apex model AFS-

1) to switch the internal effects on and off. The EFX Mute LED will illuminate when

the internal effects are muted ('off') by the Footswitch.

6. MON Fader

Audio signals from each channel MON level control arrive at the MON fader. The MON

fader adjusts the level of each channel’s signal into the monitor mix. From the MON

fader the audio signal arrives at the MON output phone jack on the front panel. The

shaded area on the MON fader front panel graphic is the fader’s usual operating posi-

tion. If the MON fader’s knob is up at 10 or down at -18 you may want to check the

position of the channel Gain or Mon controls to be sure that they are not turned to

the extreme of their setting range.

7. MAIN Fader

Audio signals from each

channel Pan level control arrive

at the MAIN fader. The MAIN

fader adjusts the level of each

channel’s signal onto the main

mix. From the MAIN fader the

audio signal passes through

the Main EQ to the MAIN Out

phone jacks on the front panel

and to the MAIN Out XLR jacks

on the rear panel. The shaded

area on the MAIN fader front

panel graphic is the fader’s

usual operating position. If the

MAIN fader’s knob is up at 10

or down at -30 you may want

to check the position of the

channel Gain or Channel Fader

controls to be sure that they

are not turned to the extreme

of their setting range.

To ensure maximum sig-

nal head room and clar-

ity, set the channel Gain

and Fader controls first

for a good sig nal without

clipping, then set the

master for the overall

volume desired.
