2.5.1 Mono Aux Sends 1/2
AUX 1 and AUX 2 are mono auxiliary sends that feed aux buses 1 and 2. These sends
are commonly used as effects sends, but can be used for additional headphone feed or
other purposes.
A common on/off switch is used to silently engage both mono sends. The post-fader
signal feeds AUX 1/2 by default, but the pair can be switched to the pre-fader signal.
*An internal jumper determines the source of the aux/cue feed when the PRE switch is
engaged. Refer to section 2.5.4 Aux Pre Jumper for detailed information.
2.5.2 Stereo Aux Send 3/4
AUX 3/4 is a stereo auxiliary send that feed aux buses 3 and 4 by default. These sends
can also be routed to the stereo cue bus to quickly create a fully featured headphone
feed when recording. When mixing, stereo AUX 3/4 or CUE can be used for effects
sends.
A common on/off switch is used to silently engage the stereo send. The post-fader
signal feeds AUX 3/4-CUE by default, but the pair can be switched to the pre-fader
signal. In common practice, post-fader sends are often used for effects sends and pre-
fader sends are typically used for headphone feeds.
*An internal jumper determines the source of the aux/cue feed when the PRE switch is
engaged. Refer to section 2.5.4 Aux Pre Jumper for detailed information.
