4.2 The MINIFEX in the insert path

If your mixing console is equipped with insert paths, you can also connect the MINIFEX using these
combined inputs/outputs. In this case, the effects unit is directly integrated into the signal path of the
mixing console. Such a configuration is usually required for signal processors such as compressors,
because you only want to use the processed signal rather than a mix of direct and effects signals. In
order to use an effects unit such as the MINIFEX in the insert path, you will have to adjust the
desired volume ratio of direct vs. effect signal with the MIX BALANCE control .
Please use the respective channel insert to process specific instruments. Groups of instruments or
stereo mixes can be processed with the sub-group/main-mix inserts.

4.3 The MINIFEX as an effects unit for instruments

You can also use the MINIFEX on stage as an effects unit for keyboards. This can be useful if your
keyboard has only limited effect capabilities or if you want to process selected sounds with the
MINIFEX effects via existing single outputs. The illustration below shows how to wire the FEX800
either to an amplifier or via a D.I. box to a mixing console. You can switch the effect on and off using
an additional footswitch.
