EURODESK SX3242FX/SX2442FX
Control elements and connections 10
Master aux send outputs Fig. 2.23:
(52) Use the AUX SEND outputs 1 and 2 to take the masterAUX
SEND signals and route them to an external effects device
or your monitor speakers. Subsequently, you can return the
effect signal, e.g. via the STEREO FX RETURN inputs (see
(67) ) or specific input channels.
Graphic 9-band stereo equalizer 2.9
The graphic stereo equalizer Fig. 2.24:
(53) Your EURODESK is equipped with a graphic 9-band stereo
equalizer processing either the main or the AUX 1 signal.
Use the EQ to adapt the sound to the room acoustics.
(54) Use the EQ IN switch to switch the equalizer on. In this case,
the fader LEDs illuminate.
(55) With the MAIN/AUX 1 switch you can determine the signal
to be processed, either main or AUX 1.
(56) Press the FBQ IN switch to activate the FBQ Feedback
Detection System. The frequencies causing feedback are
indicated by the brightly lit fader LEDs, while all other LEDs
are darker. Simply lower the level of the brightly lit faders
until feedback disappears.
When the switch is in the “AUX 1” position (see
+ (55) ),
the EQ fader LEDs show both the MAIN and the AUX
1 signal simultaneously. However, if feedback occurs
in one of the signals, those signals without feedback
will be faded out to enable clear identification of where
feedback is occurring. If the MAIN signal happens to be
the one carrying feedback, put the switch (55) to “MAIN”
and then use the 9-band EQ to remove the feedback.
Effects section 2.10
The digital effects processor Fig. 2.25:
(57) Here you will find a list of all multi-effects presets (see also
chapter 3 “Digital effects processor”).
(58) The FX LED level meters show the effects processor’s
input signal. Be sure that the clip LED only illuminates with
signal peaks. If it is lit all the time, the effects processor is
overloading and hence producing unpleasant distortion.
(59) The Effect displays show the currently selected presets.
(60) This is the master FX 1 (or 2) SEND control for adjusting
the volume of all FX send signals at the correspondingFX
send jacks (see (66)) and at the inputs of the built-in effects
processor. Use it to control the master signal of allFX 1/FX
2 signals from the input channels. When neither of the FX
SEND controls is turned up, the effects processor will not
receive a signal.
(61) Turn the FX 1 (or FX 2) control to select an effects preset.
Then, push it briefly to confirm your selection and activate
the new effect.
(62) The FX 1 (or 2) TO AUX 1 controls allow you to add the effect
signal from the built-in effects processor (FX1 or FX2) to the
AUX 1 monitor signal. Naturally, the effects processor must
be provided with an input signal (i.e. the FX controls in the
channel strips plus the FX SEND controls and the channel
faders must be turned up).
(63) This is the FX 1 (or 2) TO AUX 2 control adding the effect
signal from the effects processor to the AUX 2 monitor signal.
See (62) for further details.
(64) The FX 1 (or 2) TO MAIN control routes the effect signal
either to the main mix or the subgroups 1 and 2 (or 3 and 4),
depending on the position of the selector switch (see (65)).
When it is hard left, no effect signal will be audible. Here,
too, the FX controls in the channel strips plus theFX SEND
controls and the channel faders must be turned up.
(65) These selector switches route the effect signal to the main
mix or to the subgroups 1-2 or 3-4. If the MAIN/SUB switch
is not pressed, the effect signal is sent to the main mix and
the SUB 1/2 / SUB 3/4 switch below is inoperative. If the
upper switch is pressed (SUB), however, the lower switch
determines whether the effect signal is routed to subgroups
1 and 2 (SUB 1/2) or 3 and 4 (SUB 3/4).
