4.2 The MINIFEX in the insert path
If your mixing console is equipped with insert paths, you can also
connect the MINIFEX using these combined inputs/outputs. In this
case, the effects unit is directly integrated into the signal path of the
mixing console. Such a configuration is usually required for signal
processors such as compressors, because you only want to use the
processed signal rather than a mix of direct and effects signals.
In order to use an effects unit such as the MINIFEX in the insert path,
you will have to adjust the desired volume ratio of direct vs. effect
signal with the MIX BALANCE control

.
Please use the respective channel insert to process specific
instruments. Groups of instruments or stereo mixes can be processed
with the sub-group/main-mix inserts.

4.3 The MINIFEX as an effects unit
for instruments
You can also use the MINIFEX on stage as an effects unit for keyboards.
This can be useful if your keyboard has only limited effect capabilities
or if you want to process selected sounds with the MINIFEX effects
via existing single outputs. The illustration below shows how to wire
the FEX800 either to an amplifier or via a D.I. box to a mixing console.
You can switch the effect on and off using an additional footswitch.
