Owner's Manual Synth 1 Synth 2 Dual DI Box Effects/ Sampler Keyboard submix to front-of-house mixer Headphones Stage Snake This diagram shows the stereo outputs of a synth connected to the line inputs of channels 1 and 2. The stereo pan switch is pressed in, so channel 1 only goes to the left of the main mix, and channel 2 only goes to the right. Another stereo synth is connected to the line-level inputs of channels 3 and 4. An effects/sampler is connected to the tape input and tape output. The "assign to main" switch is pressed in during playback, so the output from the effects/sampler will appear in the main mix. Leave the switch out when capturing sounds. The line-level main mix output connects to the inputs of a dual DI box. This converts the output so it is suitable for connecting to the inputs of a stage snake connected to the inputs of the front of house mixer. A pair of headphones allows you to hear the main mix as you play. Between songs, you can turn down the main output to the FOH mixer, and experiment with sounds and new patches and still listen in the headphones without upsetting the audience.
