XENYX XL3200/XL2400/XL1600 User Manual

FX 1 and 2
The FX outputs 1 and 2 provide the signals of the effects buses 1 and 2. 

These signals may be sent to external effects processors and are routed back over 

the AUX-RETURN inputs or separate input channels, for example.

MON 1 and 2
The monitor outputs 1 and 2 provide the signals of the monitor buses. 

These signals may be be sent to stage loudspeakers. To prevent interference due 

to the long cables being used between stage and mixing console, the outputs 

are balanced XLR connectors. What's more, you have the right connectors when 

working with multicores.

AUX 1 and 2
The AUX outputs 1 and 2 provide the signals of the AUX buses 1 and 2. 

You can switch these buses pre-fader and post-fader so that they may be 

used for effects as well as for monitor applications.

AUX RETURN
The stereo AUX inputs 1 und 2 let you connect the mixer to additional equipment 

(players, effects processors, submixers, etc.). The signal is sent to the signal sum.

FX RETURN
The stereo FX RETURN connectors 1 and 2 are linked to the outputs of external 

effects processors. Depending on the routing, the signals are sent to the 

subgroup or the main mix bus.

LAMPS
The LAMPS plugs are for connecting gooseneck lamps with BNC connectors. 

The power supply is 12 V _ and the total connection load is 5 Watts a lamp.

PHONES
The PHONES outputs (¼" stereo jacks) let you plug in your headphones.

This chapter describes the various control elements of your mixing console. 

Each control and switch is explained in full detail.

+48 V
This control LED lights up as long as the phantom power is switched on. 

The switch is found on the rear panel of the unit.

Trim
The TRIM control adjusts the input gain. 

The dial offers 2 different value ranges. The first value range between 0 and +60 

refers to the microphone input, indicating the degree of amplification applied to 

the input's signal. The second value range between -20 and +40 dB refers to the 

amplification of the line input. When centered (at 12 o'clock), the line signals are 

neither boosted nor cut.

80 Hz
Press the 80 Hz switch to activate the high-pass filter which blends out 

low-frequency noise (-3 dB at 80 Hz, 18 dB/octave).

Equalization
The mono input channels provide 4-band equalization with 2 semi-parametric 

mids. You can boost or cut the bands up to 15 dB. When in center position (0 dB), 

the equalizer has a flat response.

HIGH
The high-frequency range is processed with a shelving filter above 12 kHz.

HIGH MID
A semi-parametric peak filter processes the upper mid range between 400 Hz 

and 8 kHz. The FRE control selects the frequency which is boosted or cut by using 

the HIGH MID control.
