F Insert Assign Switch

The INSERT ASSIGN switches route processed signal returning from signal processors or other devices connected to

the AuxPander INSERT jacks.

INSERT ASSIGN

GLOBAL: Inserted processor affects signal at both the Aux-

Pander and the mixing console.

REMOTE: Processed signal goes to the mixing console only

(signal going to the AuxPander mix bus remains unprocessed).

LOCAL: Processed signal goes to the AuxPander only (signal

returned to mixing console is unprocessed).

G Output Jacks

There are four pairs of impedance-balanced, line-level,

” OUTPUT jacks. Create mixes for these outputs using the

front panel LEVEL and BALANCE knobs.

H Direct Input Jacks

Connect balanced or unbalanced, line-level audio to the DIRECT INPUT jacks. Signals at the DIRECT INPUT jacks

operate at unity gain. They sum with the signal at the left (L/MONO) and right (R) OUTPUT jacks after the mix bus.

Mono Operation: If you plug a connector into the L/MONO jack only, the signal from that connector appears at both

the left (L/MONO) and right (R) stereo outputs.

Use the direct inputs for signals that do not need to go to the mixing console and can be placed “on top” of the mixes at

the OUTPUT jacks. For example, you can put a click track on the stereo mix going to the drummer.

Direct inputs also allow you to expand the number of input channels while keeping the same number of mixed outputs.

For example, connecting the outputs of one AuxPander to the direct inputs of another AuxPander creates a 16 X 8

matrix. Since the direct inputs operate at unity gain, the combined mixes of Inputs 1–8 (the first AuxPander) and Chan-

nels 9–16 (the second AuxPander) arrive at the outputs of the second AuxPander.

NOTE: See page 15 for an example of a 16 X 8 matrix.
