________________________________________________________
3.1 Mix 1
General
Mix 1 consists of
four pairs of Left and Right
inputs, two Passive Split outputs, and two pairs of MIX 1 outs. All of these jacks are for mono
plugs, and are intended for line level signals.
For mono signals, use only the Left input and the signal will feed into both the Left and Right
channels.
After the four inputs are combined, their overall volume is controlled by the MIX 1 knob on the
front panel, and the resulting signal is passed to the two sets of Mix 1 Out jacks.
Mix 1 In 1 and the Passive Split
You will blend the outputs of your effects with the pure tone of your preamp. In most cases, the
output of your preamp (or your amp's effect send) will be connected to Mix 1 In 1. The Passive
Split outputs are copies of the signal coming in Mix 1 In 1. These outputs are used to drive the
inputs of your effects devices.
Mix 1 Outputs
There are two identical stereo pairs of outputs for Mix 1. Mix 1 is also internally connected to
Mix 2. These outputs can be used to drive the inputs of more stereo effects devices for a second
"stage" of processing. The outputs of these effects can then be connected to Mix 2 inputs. In this
way you can have two stages of parallel effects, one cascading into another. In Section 6 you will
see how it all comes together in a system.
3.2 Mix 2
General
Mix 2 consists of four pairs of Left and Right inputs, and one pair of MIX 2 outs. After the four
inputs are combined, their overall volume is controlled by the MIX 2 knob on the front panel, and
the resulting signal is passed to the Mix 2 Out jacks, and to the Cabinet Simulator circuitry
(which feeds the rear panel Direct Outs and the front panel Balanced Outs).
Mix 2 In 1
If the Mix 2 In 1 jacks are empty, the stereo output of Mix 1 will be fed into Mix 2. Inserting a
plug into them will break this normal connection between the two mixers.
