They are mono-in, stereo-out effects processors, with 24 presets each. Signals to these effects processors come from adjusting the FX1 aux send [35] and the FX2 aux send [36] on each channel. The stereo output from each processor can be added to the main mix using the FX return faders [57]. The output from FX1 can also be added to the monitor 1 mix or monitor 2 mix by adjusting the FX1 to mon1 and FX1 to mon 2 [56] controls. Very careful thought and lots of audio love has gone into the design of the 24 presets. The engineers spent a lot of time lounging about in warm lounges, visiting theaters, bright rooms and stages, going to concerts, and visiting cathedrals on Sundays, just to get these sounds right for you. Initially, they wanted to investigate "warm beach in Hawaii," but had to make do with "cold beach in Washington" instead. 60. FX1 SEND MASTER and FX2 SEND MASTER These knobs control the level of ­the signals going into each internal effects processor. Adjust them carefully, with your inner magical eye on the adjacent SIG/OL LED [61] to prevent overloading the effects processor. These knobs also affect the levels going out of the FX send line-level outputs [11], so you can use them to adjust the level going to external effects processors. 61. SIG/OL LED These dual-LEDs illuminate in green when the signal level going into each effects processor is in a good operating range (SIG). They illuminate in red if the effects processor is being overloaded with too strong a signal (OL). Turn down the send master levels [60] if these come on regularly. The signals going into the processors are affected by the channel FX 1 and 2 aux sends [35, 36], and the channel gain [23], EQ [27-32], and channel faders [40]. If the OL LEDs come on after you adjust any of these controls, turn down the send master levels [60]. If you have an external processor connected (and so the internal FX processors are not used) you can still use these LEDs to judge the level going out. 26 PPM1012
