The FX sends of the stereo channels function similar to those
of the mono channels. However, since the FX send buses are
both mono, a mono sum is first taken from the stereo input before
it is sent to the FX bus. The 502 is not equipped with FXsends.
The BAL(ANCE) control determines the levels of left and right
input signals relative to each other before both signals are then
routed to the main stereo mix bus. If a channel is operated in
mono via the left line input, this control has the same function as
the PAN control used in the mono channels.
The LEVEL control determines the volume of the channel being
sent to the main mix.
The stereo inputs of the XENYX 1002 and 1202 have an input
sensitivity switch which selects between +4 dBu and -10 dBV.
At -10 dBV (home-recording level), the input is more sensitive
(requires less level to drive it) than at +4 dBu (studio level).

802 only: the STEREO AUX RETURN connectors are used to
bring the output of the external effects device (whose input is
derived from the aux sends) back into the console. You can
instead use these connectors as additional inputs, but any effects
device will then have to be brought back into the console via a
normal stereo channel. This does, however, give you the ability
to use the channel EQ on the effects return signal if you wish.
+
If only the left connector is used, the AUX RETURN automatically
operates in mono. Use the AUX RETURN control to determine
how much of the effects signal is sent to the main mix.
The FX SEND output (does not apply for 502) should be
connected to the input of an external effects unit. The post-
fader FX signal you created using the input channel FX controls
is sent to the effects unit via the FX SEND ouput. Use the FX
SEND control of the main section to adjust the overall send level
(1002 and 1202 only).

can also be used as a standard stereo line input, so the output of
a second XENYX or BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO MX882 can be
connected.
source selection switch could also be hooked up here, allowing
you to easily listen to additional sources.
