[. . . ] The idea is to set this conhol as hi& as possible without the Peak LED coming on. Adjust each charmel individually while the mics or inputs are being used in their normal way. The cenfre position is a good starting point. [. . . ] The VOL lnob contols the volurne of the headphones. The slider at the bottom ofeach channel confiols how much ofeach input is sent to the output section. It is simply a volume control for each channel. To get any sound from your mixer, both the channel slider and the master slider need to be tumed up. The above information is all that you need to known to set up and operate a basic system. Practice and hands-on experience will make you an expert. The next stage of this booklet deals with the more advanced features of the mixer. Auxiliaries are known as sends because they are used to send a signal out ofthe mixer. You will notice that each channel has 3 auxiliaries, and that there are 3 master Auxiliaries on the far right hand side of the mixer. There are also three l/4" Atxiliary output sockets. Auxiliaries are normally used for foldback and/or effects, but can also be used to recording or to feed a hearing loop arnplifier. Foldback: This term refers to a monitoring system usually comprising of another amplifier and onstage speakers. Foldback is used so that performers can hear themselves while on stage. A foldback (monitod system would norrnally be connected to AIIX l, because this is pre-fader, which means that the channel slider has no effect on the aux output. To connect a foldback system, run a lead from the AIIX 1 output to the line input of you power amplifier. As a starting point set the Aux I master in the centre position and slowly raise the Aux I control on the channel that you are using. Adjust the Aux I for each channel that is required for foldback so that you have a suitable mix ofall the channels in the foldback speakers. Effects: AI-IX 2 and 3 are post fader which means that the position of the channel slider affects the amount of level being sent to these auxiliaries. Aux 2 and 3 would normally be used for effects. When using effects, the Auxiliary ou@ut sends the signal out of the mixer, but the effect has to be returned and combined with the original sigrral. To connect an effect, run a lead from the Aux 2 or 3 output to the input of yow effects units. The effects unit will have one or two outputs (2 for stereo), which need to be connected to the returns of the mixer. T\e Focus mixers have two retum inputs which are positioned just below the master outputs. The Volume and Pan contols for the returns are below that master LEDs. The return volume tells the mixer how much of the sigral with effects is being rehrmed. The retum Pan contol allows you to decide if the effect is going to be mixed with both the left and right outputs or anywhere in between. When returning a stereo effect, run the left effect output into Return and return the right effect output into Return 2 and Pan fuflV right. I and Pan firlly left, This will maintain the stereo image that is created from the effects unit. Another method of retuming effects is to use the line input of a spare channel. [. . . ] It therefore requires a 3 conductor (stereo) jack. Please contact your nearest Focus dealer ifyou require any more infonnation rl I I I i<!ti. . :l . J V I ra !l ir i l: :* !!
