To a stereo PA system or instrument
amplifier
Balanced
Check to see if your amplifier can accept balanced inputs. If so,
connect the [MAIN OUT BALANCED] jacks of the Multimix 12R to the
input of the amp using a 3-conductor cable, with a 1/4" TRS plug on
one end, and the connector used by the amp (usually a 1/4" TRS
connector; sometimes an XLR or terminal strip) on the other.
• You may also connect the [MONITOR OUT] jacks of the mixer to your
amplifier. This will allow you to switch between hearing 2-track playback
and the stereo output of the mixer, using the front panel monitor switch.
Unbalanced
If the amp is unbalanced, use a standard shielded "patch cord" with
1/4" connectors.
To a mono system
If your PA system or amplifier isn't stereo, connect either the left or
right MAIN OUT jacks to the input of the system. Make sure that all
[PAN] controls are in the center or turned to the side you're using.
To a stage monitor (foldback) system
If your PA system has a separate amplifier and speaker system for
monitors, connect a cable from the [AUX 1 PRE AUX SENDS] jack to
the amp input, in the same manner as above. The Aux 1 system is a
pre-fader, post-EQ send with a balanced/unbalanced output. In most
stage monitor situations, we recommend connecting a third-octave
graphic equalizer such as the Alesis MEQ-230 between the mixer and
the amp to control feedback.
The Aux 1 output may be connected in the same way for a number of
different applications such as:
• Headphone cue feed for multitrack recording
• Separate broadcast mix from a PA system
• Zone feed for a separate region of a PA system
