Connecting To The Channel Inserts Of A Mixing Console - Alesis ModFX Phingr Reference Manual

Connecting to the Channel Inserts of a
mixing console:
Most recording consoles have a jack near the mic and line inputs
labeled "Insert". This is typically a TRS jack with the send and
return on the same jack. To use the Phlngr as a channel insert, you
will need an insert cable (not included).

This cable splits the TRS insert jack into two unbalanced mono
connectors. Usually, the tip is connected to the INPUT of the
Phlngr and the ring is connected to the OUTPUT of the Phlngr.
However, this may be reversed on some recording consoles.
Check your mixer's Reference Manual to be sure or just try it both
ways – this won't damage the Phlngr.
For stereo operation, you would use two insert cables, inserted
into two adjacent channels of the mixer. One would send and
receive signal to the left channel of the Phlngr, and the pan pot of
that mixer channel would normally be panned to the left. Pan the
next mixer channel, for the right side of the Phlngr, to the right.
