Connections All input and output connectors are as usual located on the back panel of the Mixer 14:2. Special connectors are used for “chaining” two or more Mixer 14:2 devices together. This is described on “Chaining several Mixer 14:2 devices”. Mixer Channel Connections Each mixer channel features stereo left/right inputs for connecting audio devices. Use the left input when manually connecting a mono signal source. In addition, there are two Control Voltage (CV) inputs (with associated voltage trim pots), for voltage controlling channel Level and Pan from other devices. Auxiliary (AUX) Send Out There are four stereo Send Out connectors, which normally are used to connect to the inputs of effect devices. To connect a send to a mono-input device, use the Left (Mono) output. When a Send is connected to an effects device, the corresponding AUX Send knob determines the level of the signal sent to the effect device for each channel. The Send Output is taken post-channel fader but you have the option of selecting pre-fader mode for AUX Send 4. Note that some effects (for example the Comp-01 compressor or the PEQ2 parametric EQ) are effect types which are not designed to be used as AUX Send effects, but rather as insert effects, where the whole signal is passed through the effect. Alternatively, you could use AUX Send 4 in pre-fader mode and lower the channel fader completely. Auxiliary (AUX) Returns There are four stereo Return input connectors. These are normally connected to the left and right outputs of effect devices. Master Left/Right Outputs • The Master outputs are auto-routed to the input pair of the first available Mix Channel device in the rack. If no Mix Channel device is available, one will be automatically created when you create a Mixer 14:2 device. • In addition to the Master Out connectors, there is a Control Voltage (CV) input (and an associated trim pot), for voltage controlling the Master Level from another device.
