Sound Performance Lab MixDreamXP Model 2591 - Manual (Page 9)

MixDream XP 9
Main Outputs
The Main Outputs provide a stereo mixdown for a recording
device through electronically balanced XLR outputs. Here as a
rule you will route the stereo mix through an A/D converter for
re-recording as a new DAW track.
Monitor Outputs
The Monitor Outputs run parallel with the Main Outs and provide
for separate monitoring of the stereo mixdown through elec-
tronically balanced XLR outputs.
TIP: SPL’s Monitor & Talkback Controller MTC 2381 offers all
necessary control functionality for DAW monitoring at this
stage.
IMPORTANT: Since Main and Monitor Outs function in parallel,
using a non-balanced connection in one results in both outputs
being unbalanced.
Expansion Inputs
This is another stereo input based on electronically balanced
XLR connectors. It can be activated with the Expansion Input
switch at the right set of switches on the front. Usually the
Main Outputs of another MixDreamXP are connected here to
enable summing of up to 32 channels, but of course any (stereo)
summed signal can be connected here.
IMPORTANT: The Expansion Inputs of the summing MixDreamXP
must be connected to the Main Output of the second
MixDreamXP—never connect both Expansion Inputs!
TIP for owners of the MixDream 2384: A MixDreamXP should
always be used for Mixdream 2384 expansion. This way you
can always make use of the processing stages of the MixDream
2384 for the final stereo mix (Stereo Expander, Limiter, Master
Insert, Output Transformers).
