Auxiliary Send Channels

The Digital Recording Console 02R has eight auxiliary send channels.
AUX7 and AUX8 are used to feed the internal effects processors, with the
signal remaining entirely in the digital domain.
The other auxiliary sends - AUXl through AUX6 - can be used to feed
external signal processors and effects units, foldback amplifiers, or
multitrack recording equipment. AUX5 and AUX6 can also be used to
construct a monitor mix and routed directly to either the studio or control
room monitors. When a send is used to feed an external effects processor,
the processed signal can be returned via one of the stereo input channels or
an unused input channel.
There are two different ways to access the auxiliary send channels:
DISPLAY ACCESS - AUX buttons
These buttons access the Display Functions that set the auxiliary send
levels for the recording console.
•
The [AUX l] to [AUX 6] buttons set the auxiliary send levels to the
corresponding auxiliary bus. You can also select whether to send the
signal pre or post fader.
•
The [AUX 7] and [AUX 8] buttons also set the send levels to the
corresponding auxiliary bus and can be sent pre or post fader. These
two sends are routed to the internal effects unit. Therefore, the buttons
also allow you to select and set the effects parameters.
When you press any one of these buttons, the faders switch from
controlling the input levels to controlling the auxiliary send levels.
SELECTED CHANNEL - AUX controls
These buttons and controls set the auxiliary send levels for the currently
selected channel.
•
The [AUX l] to [AUX 8] buttons allow you to select the auxiliary buses
you want to send the selected channel signal to.
•
The SEND LEVEL rotary encoder is used to set the level - indicated by
the adjacent LED bargraph.
•
The [ON] button is used to turn the send on or off.
