These are the master AUX SEND controls 1 and 2 for adjusting the volume 
level sent to the corresponding aux send connectors (see 
(52)
). This way, 
you can control the mix of all AUX 1 or AUX 2 signals of the input channels. 
The AUX SEND section also has a SOLO switch.
 
(52)

(52) 
Use the AUX SEND outputs 1 and 2 to take the master AUX SEND 
signals and route them to an external effects device or your monitor 
speakers. Subsequently, you can return the effect signal, e.g. via the 
STEREO FX RETURN inputs (see 
(67)
) or specific input channels.

Fig. 2.24: The graphic stereo equalizer
(53) 
Your EURODESK is equipped with a graphic 9-band stereo equalizer 
processing either the main or the AUX 1 signal. Use the EQ to adapt the 
sound to the room acoustics.
(54) 
Use the EQ IN switch to switch the equalizer on. In this case, the fader 
LEDs illuminate.
(55) 
With the MAIN/AUX 1 switch you can determine the signal to be processed, 
either main or AUX 1.
(56) 
Press the FBQ IN switch to activate the FBQ Feedback Detection System. 
The frequencies causing feedback are indicated by the brightly lit fader 
LEDs, while all other LEDs are darker. Simply lower the level of the brightly 
lit faders until feedback disappears.
◊ 
When the switch is in the “AUX 1” position (see 
(55)
), the EQ fader 
LEDs show both the MAIN and the AUX 1 signal simultaneously. 
However, if feedback occurs in one of the signals, those signals without 
feedback will be faded out to enable clear identification of where 
feedback is occurring. If the MAIN signal happens to be the one carrying 
feedback, put the switch 
(55)
 to “MAIN” and then use the 9-band EQ to 
remove the feedback.

Fig. 2.25: The digital effects processor
(57) 
Here you will find a list of all multi-effects presets (see also chapter 3  
“Digital effects processor”).
(58) 
The FX LED level meters show the effects processor’s input signal. 
Be sure that the clip LED only illuminates with signal peaks. If it is lit 
all the time, the effects processor is overloading and hence producing 
unpleasant distortion.
(59) 
The Effect displays show the currently selected presets.
(60) 
This is the master FX 1 (or 2) SEND control for adjusting the volume of all 
FX send signals at the corresponding FX send jacks (see 
(66)
) and at the 
inputs of the built-in effects processor. Use it to control the master signal of 
all FX 1/FX 2 signals from the input channels. When neither of the FX SEND 
controls is turned up, the effects processor will not receive a signal.
(61) 
Turn the FX 1 (or FX 2) control to select an effects preset. Then, push it 
briefly to confirm your selection and activate the new effect.
(62) 
The FX 1 (or 2) TO AUX 1 controls allow you to add the effect signal from 
the built-in effects processor (FX1 or FX2) to the AUX 1 monitor signal. 
Naturally, the effects processor must be provided with an input signal 
(i.e. the FX controls in the channel strips plus the FX SEND controls and the 
channel faders must be turned up).
(63) 
This is the FX 1 (or 2) TO AUX 2 control adding the effect signal from the 
effects processor to the AUX 2 monitor signal. See 
(62)
 for further details.
(64) 
The FX 1 (or 2) TO MAIN control routes the effect signal either to the main 
mix or the subgroups 1 and 2 (or 3 and 4), depending on the position of the 
selector switch (see 
(65)
). When it is hard left, no effect signal will be audible. 
Here, too, the FX controls in the channel strips plus the FX SEND controls and 
the channel faders must be turned up.
