EURORACK MX1604A

this signal to the monitors and/or phones.

However, it can also be routed to the Main Mix via

2 TK TO MIX and will act as an additional input for tape

playback, MIDI instruments etc. Here should be disengaged, or you will be listening to the 2-Track signal

twice over!

With

depressed you have another stereo Line input available to the mix, useful e.g. for adding the output

of a second EURORACK or a BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO MX882 to your mix (see Section 9.5 Expand-

ing).

Output

The Main Mix output is delivered by XLR connectors and TRS jacks on the back panel as well as by RCA

phono jacks on the front. Level is ultimately determined by a pair of precision faders .

Although the 2-Track output is primarily designed for recording, it can also be used as a PA feed, or as a

send to the input of your sampler. Depressing on the rear panel will lower the level at the XLR connectors

by 20dB.

4.6 Monitoring

Though most of you will want to audition the Main Mix most of the time there are exceptions. These

include the Alt 3-4 bus and 2-Track playback .

A single volume control sends the level to the headphones and main monitors .

If you want to audition external sources very often, you could connect a hi-fi pre-amp (or tape out) to your

2-Track input, allowing you to monitor a variety of extra sources such as vinyl, cassette, CD etc.

4.7 Alt 3-4 output

By depressing the Mute button a channels output will be routed to the Alt 3-4 output instead of the Main

Mix.

Level to the Alt 3-4 outputs (TRS jacks on the back panel) is adjusted by . Use to have the Signal

PFL-ed ( and up).

Alt 3-4 is likely to bewilder newcomers. We want to illustrate how this feature may be used most effectively.

Su/jointfilesconvert/465087/bgroups are commonly used as a mixing aid both live and in the studio, e.g. to combine the outputs from all

drum channels onto just 1 or 2 submaster faders. They are also used to route to multitrack recorders .

There are no fully-fledged su/jointfilesconvert/465087/bgroups on the MX1604A. However, the Alt 3-4 bus offers you a second

independent stereo submix with its own submaster stereo fader . Combining the Alt 3-4 outputs with the

Main Mix may be effected by activating the Alt 3-4 to Mix switch .

E.g.: If you want to generate two mono su/jointfilesconvert/465087/bgroups in addition to the normal Main Mix stereo bus, patch Alt outs

3 and 4 back into two mono channels, and use these as Su/jointfilesconvert/465087/bgroup masters (the su/jointfilesconvert/465087/bgroup return channels

must not be routed to the Alt 3-4 bus themselves, as this would constitute a feedback loop). Engaging mute on

any input channel routes to the Alt 3-4 bus. Channel Pan now selects between Alt outputs 3 and 4 (left = 3,

right = 4).

Fig. 4.1: Su/jointfilesconvert/465087/bgroup as Master

+ Su/jointfilesconvert/465087/bgroups can be mixes of several channels of sound: dont be surprised if, once you have set

up the input gain correctly, the submaster faders are set higher than normal channels.
