1.2 The user’s manual

The user’s manual is designed to give you both an overview of
the controls, as well as detailed information on how to use them.
In order to help you understand the links between the controls,
we have arranged them in groups according to their function.
The illustrations at the beginning of each chapter show the
controls described in each respective chapter.
+
For the moment, just try and trace the signal path from the
microphone input to the FX send connector. Don’t be put off by
the huge range of possibilities; it’s easier than you think! If you
look at the overview of the controls at the same time, you’ll be
able to quickly familiarize yourself with your mixing console and
you’ll soon be making the most of all its many possibilities.
If you need to know more about specific issues, please visit
our website at http://www.behringer.com, where you’ll find
explanations of (for example) effects and dynamics applications.
