Wiring examples: live and studio
Live application: channel strip for vocals, one module used separately
An example for a live setup: The compressor module is separated from the channel strip.
The vocal signal can be processed with all remaining modules, while the compressor is used
for processing bass. In the same way, each module can be taken out of the channel strip,
e. g. using the De-Esser separately while processing an acoustic guitar with the (remaining)
channel strip and so on. Detailed information on page 25.
Studio application: all inputs and outputs are routed to a patchbay
Our recommendation for studio wiring: all inputs and outputs are connected to a patchbay so
that each Frontliner module can be routed with maximum flexibility within a studio environ-
ment. Connections to a console or to DAW interfaces for example can always be configured
to meet the respective requirements. Aside from the switching options that the Frontliner
provides the sequence of modules can be determined in any way with the patchbay.
