Headphone Amp (Aux Send 5) Headphone Amp (Aux Send 6) Headphone Amp (Aux Send 3) Headphone Amp (Aux Send 4) Headphones Mackie HR824mk2 Powered Reference Monitor for Control Room (Right) This diagram shows an electric guitar connected directly to the channel 1 input (hi-z switch in), a bass guitar connected directly to channel 2 (hi-z switch in), an acoustic guitar mic connected to the channel 3 mic input, studio mics connected to channel 4-8 mic inputs, an electronic drum set connected to channel 9-10 line inputs, and a keyboard connected to channel 11-12 line inputs. A CD player connects to the tape input for referencing pre-recorded material. A multi-FX processor is connected to the insert jack of channel 1 to work its magic on your guitar. A dynamics processor is connected to insert 2 for your bass, and an additional dynamics processor connects to insert 3 for your acoustic guitar. Compressors are connected to inserts 6-8 for your vocals. A stereo compressor is connected to the main inserts. Mackie HR824mk2 powered reference monitors are used for your control room listening. The engineer's headphones are used to monitor levels. In this example, auxes 1-2 feed the inputs of multi-FX processors, whose stereo outputs enter the aux 1-2 returns, to be added to the main mix by adjusting the master return knob for auxes 1-2. Auxes 3-6 are set up to provide the feed to separate headphone amplifiers and the bands' headphones. Each member may set the levels to their liking. A desktop computer connects to a FireWire port allowing any number of the 16 individual channels to be tracked at one time using audio production software. Mixer channels 15/16 can play the 2-channel signals from your computer if the FW 15/16 switches at the top of the 15/16 channel strips are engaged. This makes for easy playback for any overdubs that may be necessary. Typical Recording System 8 Onyx 1640i
