Fig 3.2: Live performance with the QX1202USB
The above diagram shows some typical connections for a live performance using 
the QX1202USB. Mono sources such as microphones and line-outs from guitar 
preamps or DI boxes can be connected to channels 1-4 via XLR or ¼" cables. 
Stereo sources can be connected to channels 5/6 through 11/12 via ¼" cables. 
If an external eects processor is to be used instead of the onboard processor, 
connect the FX SEND jack to the input of your processor. Turn the FX knob 
up on each channel that you want to add eects to. Connect the outputs 
(usuallystereo) from the processor to one of the stereo channels as shown 
in the diagram. Make sure to leave the FX knob for this stereo channel fully 
counterclockwise (o) to avoid feedback loops. Turn the LEVEL knob up on the 
stereo channel receiving the processed signal to blend the eects into the mix. 
Connect the MAIN OUTPUTS to active speakers or a power amplier. You may also 
connect active oor monitors to the CONTROL ROOM OUTPUTS so the on-stage 
talent can hear the mix. The 2-Track inputs can be used to connect an MP3 
player for music between sets, and the 2-Track outputs can be used to connect a 
digitalrecorder.
