FX, Sub and Main Faders and Switches!
54. Subs Assign Switches
[ProFX2v3, ProFX6v3,
ProFX22v3, ProFX30v3]
One popular use of the subs is to use them as master
faders for a group of channels on their way to the main
mix fader. Let us say you have a drum kit hogging up
seven channels and you are going to want to control
their group volume more conveniently. You do not
want to try that with seven hands or seven fingers,
so just unassign these channels from the main mix
and reassign them to sub -2 and engage the main mix
L-R switch located above the fader. Now you may ride
the entire drum mix with a single fader – sub -2.
Because the ProFX2v3 has a single sub -2
fader, it also has a single sub-to-L-R assign
switch.
55. Main Mix Fader
This stereo fader allows you to adjust the levels
of the main mix signals sent to the XLR and /4"
main line-level outputs.
This gives you the ultimate feeling of power and
control over the sound levels sent to your audience.
Adjust this control carefully, with your good eye on
the meters to check against overloading, and your
good ear to the levels to make sure your audience
(if any) is happy.
The main mix signals are o with the fader fully
down, the “U” marking is unity gain, and fully up
provides 0 dB of additional gain. This additional
gain will typically never be needed, but once again,
it’s nice to know that it’s there. The fader is stereo,
as it aects both the lef and right of the main mix
equally. This is the ideal control to slowly bring down
at the end of a song (or quickly in the middle of a song
if the need ever arises).
This control does not aect the aux / mon send
or FX send outputs.
The “Main Mix Fader” on the ProFX6v3
and ProFX0v3 is actually a “Main Mix
Knob”. But they behave similarly.
5. FX Knob / Fader
Stereo signals come through this FX fader – FX knob
on the ProFX6v3 and ProFX0v3 – and continue on
to the main mix fader. They contain the eects’ “wet”
signals and are mixed together with the channels’ “dry”
original signals. Turned fully up, it provides 0 dB
of additional gain, the “U” mark is unity gain,
and fully down is o.
52. FX to Subs Switches
[ProFX2v3, ProFX6v3,
ProFX22v3, ProFX30v3]
Fancy yourself adding FX to the sub groups
in addition to the main mix? Simply engage
the switch to route FX to subs -2 and/or subs 3-4.
Because the ProFX2v3 has a single sub
group (-2), it also has a single FX-to-sub
(-2) assign switch.
53. Sub -4 Faders
[ProFX2v3, ProFX6v3,
ProFX22v3, ProFX30v3]
As you might expect, these faders control the levels
of the signals sent to the sub out jacks. All channels
that are assigned to subs, not muted, and not turned
fully down will appear at the sub outs.
The sub signal is o when its fader is fully down,
the “U” marking is unity gain, and fully up provides
0 dB additional gain. Each sub fader works as a stereo
pair; sub  and 2 on a single fader, for example, to easily
maintain the lef/right balance.
The ProFX2v3 has a single sub -2 fader,
no sub 3-4 fader.
