Aux/Mono - Dynacord PowerMate 600 Owner's Manual

AUX/MONO

Generally, the AUX channel is used as monitor bus.
23. AUX SEND
This output serves for the connection of a monitoring power amplifier or active stage
monitors. Using the AUX fader, the output level can be adjusted in a wide range up to
+20dBu. The AUX send output is designed in Ground Sensing technology to prevent
the induction of external noise, even when longer cables are involved.
24. FX1/2 to AUX
These controls allow to add the effect signal that is set at the corresponding effect unit
to the AUX bus. In case you are using the AUX bus for monitoring purposes, you are
able to include the effect signals at the desired levels in the monitor mix. The experi-
ence in mixing has shown that the effect level in the monitor mix has to be lower than
the level in the main mix, since the distance between the monitor speakers and the
artists is much shorter.
25. AUX VOLUME
This fader controls the AUX SEND output level. So when the AUX bus is used for mo-
nitoring, this fader lets you control the monitor system's overall volume setting.
26. MONO OUTPUT
At the monaural output the summed, "post-fade" L/R signal of the master is present. It
can be used for additional monitoring, side fill, "next door" and Mono-Pa applications,
or to establish a delay-line.
CAUTION:
The outputted signal is affected by the setting of the MONO OUT fader as well as
the MASTER faders' setting.In case you would prefer to control the MONO OUTPUT
signal independent from the MASTER faders' setting, this can be achieved by some
minor internal modification.Please consult your dealer for assistance.
27. STANDBY
Pressing the STANDBY button mutes all outputs to which amplifiers could be connec-
ted to the PowerMate. Because this interrupts the signal flow between the mixing sta-
ge and the MAIN OUTPUTS, the internal power amplifier's signal is also muted. The
STANDBY LED indicates that the stand-by mode is engaged and the input channel
signals are not heard over the speaker systems. But, the 2Track Return signal is still
fed to the power outputs, providing you with a very comfortable solution to play inter-
mission music during performance breaks.
28. MONO OUT VOLUME
This fader controls the output level of the summed L/R master signal at the MONO
OUTPUT.The output level is also influenced by the setting of the MASTER faders.
