Connecting To The Aux Send/Return Of A Mixing Console - Alesis ModFX Reference Manual

Connecting to the Aux Send/Return of a
mixing console:
The Philtre, like other filters and equalizers, is designed for in-line
processing, not for the send/receive kind of processing typically
used for reverb units. However, plugging a group out or pre-fader
Aux send from a mixer into the Philtre will allow you to process a
mix of several instruments, from any mixer channel that has its
aux send raised or is assigned to that group. The essential point is
that the Aux send should be the pre-fader type, not an "effect
send". There shouldn't be any direct (post-fader) signal in the
main mix from any channels going through the Philtre.
To do this, connect a single cable from the Aux Send Out
(sometimes labeled "Aux Out") to the [LEFT/MONO] input of
the Philtre. Use two separate cables to connect the [LEFT
OUTPUT] and [RIGHT OUTPUT] of the Philtre to the left and
right inputs of a stereo Effect Return, or to two adjacent mixer
channels panned to left and right.
