THE MIXER

Chaining Mixers
Two chained Mixers are connected like this, the top Mixer being the “Master” Mixer.
If you need more Mixer channels, you can simply create a new Mixer. If you do this, the
Mixers are automatically connected via the “Chaining Master” and “Chaining Aux”
connectors.
D The newly created Mixer’s Master Output is connected to the original
Mixer’s Chaining Master input.
The Master Out Level for the new Mixer is now controllable from the original
Mixer’s Master fader - so that this fader now controls the Master output level of
both mixers.
D The newly created Mixer’s four stereo Aux Send outputs is connected to
the original Mixer’s Chaining Aux connectors.
The new Mixer will now have access to any Aux Send effects connected to the
original Mixer, via the same corresponding Aux Send(s).
This way, the two Mixers operate as “one”.
! One exception is the Mute/Solo function, which is not chained. Thus, so-
loing a channel in one of the Mixers, will not mute the channels in the
other Mixer.
You can create as many Mixers as you like, they will be chained in the same way, with
one Mixer remaining the “master” (i.e. it controls the Master level of all chained Mixers
and supplies the Aux Send effect sources).
Partially or Non-Chained Mixers
You can also have several Mixers that are only partially or not chained at all.
D You may for example wish to have different Aux Send effects for one
Mixer.
Then simply disconnect one or more of the Send Out to Chaining Aux connectors,
and assign new Send effects.
D You could for example send the Master output of one Mixer to another
Input pair on the Audio In Hardware interface, instead of the Chaining
Master inputs.
