As A Band Pa - Yamaha EMX660 Owner's Manual

As a band PA

Here is an example of using the EMX660 as a small PA for a band. In this example, the monitor speakers are
being sent a mix that is independent of the MAIN speaker mix. An external effect such as delay or reverb is
also being used.
Connections
• Connect mics or instruments, such as keyboards,
to the channel input jacks 1–6.
• Connect the main speakers to the POWER AMP
1 A/B jacks, and connect the monitor speakers to
the POWER AMP 2 A/B jacks.
• If you will be using an external effect such as
delay or reverb, connect the EMX660's EFFECT
OUT jack to the input jack of the external effect,
and connect the output jack of the external effect
to the EMX660's AUX IN jack.

Note: Set the power amp select switch of the POW-
ER AMP section to the "MAIN MONITOR" posi-
tion. If you are using an external effect, we
recommend that you turn down the EFFECT RTN
controls of the MAIN and MONITOR sections. If
the external effect has a stereo output, it is possible
to connect its output jacks to the LINE jacks of
channels 5. However in this case, be sure that the
EFFECT controls are turned all the way down for
the channels into which the effect sound is being in-
put. If the EFFECT controls are raised, feedback will
occur, and your speakers may be damaged.

*1. Although this example shows an
external effects processor and foot-
switch, which is used to turn on and
off the built-in digital effects process-
or, connected to the EMX660, in
practice, only one effects processor,
internal or external, will be used at a
time, so the footswitch is not required
when using external effects.
