[. . . ] UB1222FX-PRO Users Manual Version 1. 1 February 2006 EURORACK EURORACK UB1222FX-PRO IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS DETAILED SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: 1) Read these instructions. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the top cover (or the rear section). No user serviceable parts inside; refer servicing to qualified personnel. 8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. [. . . ] There is often a discrepancy between the settings of the left and the right channels when using separate equalizers. 2. 2. 3 Aux sends stereo channels In principle, the aux sends of the stereo channels function in just the same way as those of the mono channels. As aux send paths are always mono, the signal on a stereo channel is first summed to mono before it reaches the aux bus. + When you use the MAIN MIX fader to reduce the overall volume, keep in mind that the subwoofer is still receiving a signal! 2. 2. 4 Balance, mute switch and channel fader BAL The function of the BAL(ANCE) control corresponds to the PAN control in the mono channels. The balance control determines the relative proportion between the left and right input signals before both signals are routed to the main stereo mix bus. The MUTE switch, MUTE LED, CLIP LED and channel fader function in the same way as the mono channels. FX TO MON You can use this control to insert an effects signal from the built-in effects processor to your monitor mix. Of course, to do this, your effects processor must first receive a signal, i. e. the FX controls in the channel strips must be turned up, and the FX SEND fader (see fig. MON MUTE If the MON MUTE switch is pressed, the monitor bus is muted, i. e. FX SEND The FX SEND fader determines the overall level of the effects bus. Both external effects processors (via the FX SEND connector) and the built-in processor only receive an input signal if this control is open. FX TO MAIN Use the FX TO MAIN control to feed the effects signal into the main mix. If the control is turned all the way to the left, no effects signal can be heard. 8 2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTORS EURORACK UB1222FX-PRO FX MUTE If the FX MUTE switch is pressed, the effects channel is muted, i. e. no signal is present at the FX SEND connector and the effects processor no longer receives an input signal. + In this instance, the FX control of the channel being used as an effects return should be turned fully counter-clockwise, otherwise feedback problems can occur! 2. 3. 2 Monitor send and FX send connector 2. 3. 4 CD/tape return channel, voice canceller and connection socket Fig. 2. 7: Aux send connectors MON and FX MON SEND Connect the input of your monitor power amp or an active monitor system here to make the monitor mix audible to the musicians on the stage. FX SEND The FX SEND connector outputs the signal you picked up from the individual channels using the FX controls. You can connect this to the input of an external effects device in order to process the FX bus master signal. Once an effects mix is created, the processed signal can then be routed from the effects device outputs back into the AUX RETURN connectors. + + If the connected effects processor receives no input signal, the FX MUTE switch is probably pressed and/or the FX SEND control is too low. Adjust your external effects processor to 100% wet (effects signal only), because the effects signal is added to the main mix along with the dry channel signals. Fig. 2. 9: CD/tape return channel This channel, intended especially for connecting stereo signal sources (CD players, DAT recorders or even sound cards) features a particularly practical feature: the VOICE CANCELLER. 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.
