    The System Mix inputs are set to unity gain. The relative levels of all of your inputs are therefore determined by the output levels of your devices. Setting levels is a critical part of your guitar system.

Wet/Dry Balance You may reduce the output level of the effects devices if you want less effects in your final mix. If you want still more effects, lower the output of your preamp or effect send, and repeat steps 3 and 4.

    4. Putting Your System Together ________________________________________________________ The System Mix is a very flexible and versatile mixer. It can be used in many different ways. The following examples demonstrate some typical systems. Your needs may require different connections. These systems are simply meant to be starting points. Remember, all connections are intended for line level signals only, NOT speaker connections.

The passive split sends copies of the preamp signal to the mono inputs of the effects devices. The stereo outputs of the effects are brought back to the mixer to be blended with the original preamp tone.
