Audio Inserting And Patching; Tapping The Direct Output - Intelix 4001 VC User Manual

8.0 Audio Inserting and Patching

The VC series mixer provides the ability to both patch and link the mixer's audio output.
1) Tapping allows the output of the mixer to be routed to an external device, e.g.
another mixer. In tapping, the external device has final volume control since
the tapped direct output is never returned to the VC mixer. The tap output is
before the master volume control, and so is uncontrolled by the VC mixer's
master volume. A tapped output does not disturb the mixer's normal output.
Note that the tapped output is an uncontrolled unbalanced line level signal.
2) Patching allows the mixer output to be routed to an external signal processing
device, and returned to the mixer for final mix control.

8.1 Tapping the Direct Output

To tap the output signal follow these steps:
If the destination device input is balanced:
1) Connect a wire from pin 12 of the DB25 connector to the + input of
2) Connect a wire from a ground pin of the DB25 connector to the - input
If the destination device input is unbalanced:
1) Connect a wire from pin 12 of the DB25 connector to the input of the
2) Connect a wire from a ground pin of the DB25 to the ground of the
This drawing shows a tapped application. Tapping uses only pin 12. Pin 12 carries the uncon-
trolled signal to the external device, which does not return the signal to the mixer. Note that
jumper J1 is left in place for tapping operation.
