STEREO OUT connectors feed the main left and right
house speaker power amplifiers via graphic equalizers.
The FB OUT connectors feed the stage monitor
amp/speakers, also via graphic equalizers for feedback
control. The GROUP OUT connectors feed a 4-track
tape recorder so that the performance can be recorded
and remixed later to stereo. The GROUP INSERT
II\J/OUT jacks may be used to connect a com­
pressor/limiter or other effect which will then process
all the channels assigned to that group.
