Aux Inputs. The StudioLive offers two balanced stereo auxiliary inputs.
While these line inputs are generally used as effects returns, they can also
be used for any line-level source (synthesizers, amp modelers, etc.). The
left input of each pair is normalled to the right input, so if you are
returning a mono signal to the mix, connect it to the left input, and the
signal will be routed to both sides of the mix.
Power User Tip: More information about using external effects processors
can be found in Section 4.6.1.2.
Sub Outputs (StudioLive 32 only). These are balanced mono outputs,
one for each subgroup.
Power User Tip: While the StudioLive 16 does not provide dedicated outputs, it
does provide four subgroups that can be routed to the AVB network.
More information about Subgroups can be found in Section 4.6.2.
Mix Outputs. Your StudioLive features 16/10 Mix Outputs. Given the flexible nature
of these mix buses, the Mix Outputs may be used to output Aux, Subgroup, or Matrix
mixes. Your StudioLive is equipped with 12/6 XLR Mix Outputs and 4 balanced ¼" TRS
Mix Outputs.
Power User Tip: More information about configuring mixes can be found in Section 4.6.
Talkback Mic Input. The StudioLive does not have a built-in talkback microphone, so
an external mic must be used. Phantom power is always enabled on the Talkback Mic
input, so either a dynamic or condenser mic can be used. However, if using a dynamic
mic, we recommend checking its documentation to verify that phantom power will
not harm it.
Power User Tip: The Talkback Mic input uses the same high-quality XMAX mic preamp
employed by the other input channels, and can be enabled as a recording input.
Main Outputs. The StudioLive features both stereo and
mono-summed main outputs, on XLR jacks. A level control is
provided for both sets of outputs. The Main (stereo) output
level control has a range of -80 to 0 dB. The Mono Sum
output level control has a range of -80 to +6 dB.
Power User Tip: Both the stereo and mono-summed Main
outputs are active at all times.
