[. . . ] On the UB2442FX-PRO you can select which subgroup the signal is assigned to (switches 1-2 / 3-4, to the right of MAIN MIX / TO SUBS). SOLO RETURNS Additionally, this model allows you to route the aux returns together to the solo bus and the PFL bus. STEREO AUX RETURN 4 (UB2442FX-PRO only) This control behaves the same way as the other stereo aux returns. Additionally, it provides for a simple monitor path using the switch CTRL ROOM & PHONES ONLY. CTRL ROOM & PHONES ONLY Use this switch to route the signal appearing at the AUX RETURN 4 jacks to the control room and headphones outputs. Fig. 2. 12: Stereo aux return and stereo aux return (to aux send) controls STEREO AUX RETURN 1/2 (TO AUX SEND) The two right-hand STEREO AUX RETURN controls have a special function: they can be used to add an effect to a monitor mix. An example follows (UB1622FX-PRO wired to an effects device): Monitor mix with effect In this instance, your effects device should be set up as follows: the AUX SEND 2 jack should be connected to the L/Mono input of your effects device, with its outputs coming back into the STEREO AUX RETURN 1 jacks. Connect the AUX SEND 1 jack output to the amplifier of your monitor system. The AUX SEND 1 master control determines the overall volume of the monitor mix. Using the STEREO AUX RETURN (TO AUX SEND) control, the effect signal can now be blended into the monitor mix. You can easily use the headphones distribution amplifier BEHRINGER POWERPLAY PRO HA4600/HA4700/HA8000 to provide four (HA8000: eight) stereo headphone mixes for your studio. The following table shows which jacks on the console can be used for this purpose. 2. 3. 6 Supplement to UB1832FX-PRO The UB1832FX-PRO has a stereo fader for the AUX RETURN FX and offers a variety of routing options: MUTE disables the effect return (but not PFL of course!), SOLO routes it to the Solo or PFL busses, SUB to the subgroups and MAIN to the main mix. @rhyrssrp qrvprrprvr vthys AUX SEND ! @rhyrssrp Uurrssrpvthy qrvprrvthy rhpururv ihpx vvh V7 %!!AYQSP STEREO AUX RETURN connectors STEREO AUX RETURN (TO AUX SEND ) control V7 '"!AYQSP AUX SEND STEREO AUX RETURN !2. 13: The FX/AUX 2 return fader of the UB1832FX-PRO MON The MON switch routes the signals appearing at the AUX RETURN 2 jacks to the monitor path, along with the monitor signals from the channels.

VOICE CANCELLER Here, you have a filter circuitry that lets you almost entirely remove the vocal portion of a recording. The filter is constructed in such a way that voice frequencies are targeted without majorly affecting the rest of the signal. Additionally, the filter seizes only the middle of the stereo image, exactly there where the vocals are typically located. 2. 16: Control room and phones sections of the UB2442FX-PRO TAPE The TAPE switch routes the signal from the TAPE IN jacks to the level meter, the CONTROL ROOM OUT outputs and the PHONES jackthis is a simple way to check recorded signals via monitor speakers or headphones.
