[. . . ] If you are trying to mic instruments such as acoustic guitar or drums, try various mics and mic placement before adjusting your tone controls (condenser mics work well for these applications). Cutting and boosting frequencies improperly can cause an "un-natural" sound to your vocals or instruments. Your goal is to achieve a natural sound for your entire performance or recording. MONITOR 1 AND 2 CONTROLS Separate MONITOR level controls for each channel allows you to create two independent monitor mixes. The MONITOR signals are routed to the master MON 1 & 2 faders respectively before going to the MONITOR output connectors. The mix you create with the MON 1 & 2 controls can also be heard through your headphones. EFFECTS 1 & 2 This control adjusts the level a signal being sent from each channel, one to the internal digital effects processor (EFFECTS 1), and one to the EFFECTS 2 output jack via the EFFECTS 2 master send control to drive an outboard processor. The internal EFFECTS 1 are ready to use and do not require additional cable connections to achieve their full stereo imaging. EFFECTS 3 A third send routes a signal from each channel's EFFECTS 3 control to the EFFECTS 3 master send control. STEREO PANNING Each channel's PAN control allows sweeping stereo effects when panning from L to R for recordings or live sound. Superior channel separation is available over other mixers 42 33 38 won't lose the settings on your faders. CHANNEL PFL SWITCH This switch allows the operator to monitor a channel in the headphone mix to set tone and gain levels. Calibrated 60mm faders with audio taper are featured for smooth fade-outs. onboard EQ (HT760M) or use the EQ 1 & 2 switch (see 29. ) 20. EFFECTS SEND 2 & 3 Two more sends for outboard effects processors. Each send feeds their respective effects output jack (EFF 2 AND EFF 3). MASTER RETURN EFFECTS 2 & 3 Return up to 4 mono or 2 stereo effects from 2 stereo controls. MASTER LEFT & RIGHT FADERS These faders send the main stereo mix created by all channel faders to the main balanced and unbalanced output connectors. The left and right signals will be identical if you do not pan your individual channels left or right to create a stereo image. MASTER MONO FADER The C series creates an extra mono signal from the R & L master faders to be used for a mono house PA or subwoofer. HEADPHONE AND METER SOURCE The PHONES control sets the desired level of the PHONES jack. The PFL, L/R, MONO and MONITOR 1 & 2 switches allow for isolation of these events through the headphones. PFL RED LED Indicates that the headphone & meters are monitoring the channels where the PFL is switched on. [. . . ] Écho includes delay times of 50, 100, 150, 250, 350, and 500 milliseconds with background reverb. 1234 5 PEAK 341 10 PEAK 0 10 0 10 FLANGE 2 CHORUS REV TAPE IN 5 5 10 TO 0 10 0 10 MON 1 PFL +12 PHONES 5 +6 0 L-R 0 10 SUBWOOFER CABINET -12 MONO -24 -30 -50 MON 1 MON 2 MONO 13 15 17 19 22 30 50 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 dB CHANNEL 13 15 17 19 22 30 50 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 dB CHANNEL 1 2 DSP EFFECTS CONCERT SERIES C2400 INTERNAL DIGITAL EFFECTS 5 5 REVERB 123 ECHO REV 4 5612 CHORUS REV TAPE IN INSERTS AND DIRECT OUTS FULL INSERT The insert jack is a Tip Ring Sleeve (TRS) 1/4" phone jack, where the tip is the send, the ring is the return and the sleeve is ground. When used as an insert point or in full insert mode, the channel is opened up to allow an external piece of equipment to be inserted into the channels signal path. The channel signal coming from the microphone preamplifier will be forced to go through the external equipment before it can continue back through the channel re-entering before the channel tone controls. Most external equipment is not set up for the TRS plug directly so an adapter cable is required. [. . . ]
