Fig. 4.2: Wiring the console for live operation

This example shows a classic live set-up. As in the studio example, four drum 

microphones, bass, keyboard (stereo channel), guitar and two vocal microphones 

are connected. The four drum channels (kick drum, snare, overhead L, overhead  R)  

are mixed down to two subgroups and then routed to the main mix. This way, 

it is possible to conveniently control the volume of the entire drums in the main 

mix with the two subgroup faders. The built-in compressor insert effect is used 

for the bass. The corresponding input channel is separate from all buses and the 

bass signal is routed directly from the internal effects processor to the main mix 

bus. The MAIN/SUB switch must not be pressed in this case and the position of the 

SUB 1/2 SUB 3/4 switch is irrelevant.

The inputs and outputs of the BEHRINGER EURODESK are designed as unbalanced 

¼" TS connectors—except for the balanced line inputs of the mono and stereo 

channels and the main out connectors. Of course, all inputs and outputs work 

with both balanced and unbalanced connectors. The tape ins and outs are stereo 

RCA connectors.
