CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS 3. MASTER SECTION (21) (22) (23) (26) (20) (24) (25) (29) (30) (27) (28) a. AUX Sends/Returns Function and Operation (29) STEREO AUX RETURNS LEFT/MONO (30) STEREO AUX RETURNS RIGHT (12) AUX RETURN CONTROLS The Aux Return jacks are the mono or stereo returns for AUX 7-10. If you connect a signal to the Left/Mono Return jack only, the Aux Return will operate in mono and the signal will be routed to the respective Aux Return Control (12) and then mixed into the left and right Stereo Outputs (26). The separate left and right return jacks are provided for use with stereo signals such as those from the output of a stereo effects processor. The left and right return signals will be routed to the AUX Return level controls (12) and mixed into the left and right Stereo Out (26), while maintaining stereo separation. The Aux Returns are multi-functional. They may be used for returning the outputs of ef fect units, as Tape Returns from a multi-track recorder, or as extra instrument inputs, especially if your MIDI keyboard or rack supplies a pre-mixed stereo signal. (20) AUX SEND The Aux Send jack is the output for the signal sent from the channel Aux controls (7, 15). It is a 1/4" unbalanced phone jack wired: Tip = positive (+), Sleeve = ground. Master Aux Send levels are adjusted by the Master Aux Send control (37). b. Main Mix Function and Operation (23) MONO OUTPUT (26) STEREO OUTPUTS (27) TAPE INPUTS (28) REC OUTPUTS (40) MASTER MIX MONO CONTROL (41) MASTER MIX STEREO CONTROL (36) LED OUTPUT METER The mono sum signal of the Left and Right buses is sent to the Mono output which is controlled by the Mono fader (40). The Stereo Outputs are Left (L) and Right (R) unbalanced 1/4" TRS phone jacks, wired: Tip = positive (+), Sleeve = ground. The REC Outputs (28) also provide an output of the Master Mix. These outputs are RCA jacks, and designed primarily for inputs to tape recorders, etc. The output level routed to the Stereo Outputs and REC Outputs is determined ultimately by the setting of the Master Mix Stereo Control (41). The Master Mix is the sum of the signals routed from all the channels and also the inputs from the AUX return bus and the Tape Input (27). The level of signal from DAT, tape decks, CD players, etc., input to the Tape In (27) is determined by the setting of the Tape In (31) level control. The 6-stage LED Output Meter (36) displays the Master Mix Stereo, Mono, PFL or AUX send output level. 9
