Front & Rear Panels 6 ST OUT (L, R) Jacks These are impedance-balanced phone-type output jacks. These jacks output the mixed signal whose level is controlled by the ST Master LEVEL Control. You use these jacks, for example, to connect to the power amplifier driving your main speakers. 7 C-R OUT Jacks These are impedance-balanced phone-type output jacks. These jacks output the mixed signal whose level is controlled by the C-R/PHONES LEVEL Control. You use these jacks, for example, to connect to the monitor system. 8 SEND Jacks • EFFECT This is an impedance-balanced phone-type output jack that outputs the signal from the EFFECT bus. You use this jack, for example, to connect to an external effector.

The signal received by these jacks is sent to the Stereo bus. These jacks are typically used to receive a return signal from an external effector (reverb, delay, etc.). NOTE These jacks can also be used as an auxiliary stereo input. If you connect to the L (MONO) jack only, the mixer will recognize the signal as monaural and will propagate the identical signal on both L and R jacks. 0 PHONES Jack Connector for headphones. This is a balanced phone-type output jack. A FOOT SWITCH Jack This phone input jack can connect to the (separately sold) YAMAHA FC5 foot switch. With the foot switch connected, you can use your foot to toggle the digital effects ON and OFF.

If you use monaural plugs, the connection will be unbalanced. Rear Section 12 1 AC ADAPTOR IN Connector Connects to the included PA-10 power adaptor (see page 5). Use only the PA-10 adaptor included with this mixer. Use of a different adaptor may result in fire or electric shock. 2 POWER Switch Use this switch to set mixer power to ON or STANDBY. Note that trace current continues to flow while the switch is in the STANDBY position. If you do not plan to use the mixer again for a long while, be sure to unplug the adaptor from the wall outlet.
