Live P.a. With 2-Track Recording - Behringer EURODESK MX9000 User´s Manual

17. LIVE P.A. WITH 2-TRACK RECORDING

In this example we'll use the aux sends 1 and 2 for stage foldback, and 3/4/5/6 for front-of-house effects. The
P.A. is driven from the main mix. MIX-B will be used to set up the mix to DAT.

Every B-channel has its own LEVEL, PAN and HIGH and LOW EQ. MIX-B in fact is acting here like a totally
independent separate mixer, albeit with fewer facilities than the main mix. The primary stereo reverb/echo
unit's outputs have been patched into A-channels rather than an aux return, to enable them to be sent to the
MAIN MIX and MIX-B independently.
+
S48 is UP, i.e. MIX-B is NOT blended into the main mix.
+
Bringing the DAT back on aux 1 return P49 (as opposed to the 2-track or external inputs)
enables not only auditioning of DAT playback, but also balancing playback level against the
main mix, in case you also want to use it to play a pre-recorded intro tape to set the scene for
the coming performance.
+
Be sure to have aux return 1 turned all the way down or de-assigned when recording to DAT.
Otherwise expect massive and terminal (as far as the P.A. and gig are concerned) howlround.
