4. Channel Mon Control
Each channel has a Mon (monitor send) control which varies the amount

of channel signal being tapped off and sent to the monitor bus in the

MP6D. The Mon signal is pre-fader and pre-EQ, in other words it is taken

before the Gain and EQ controls so that the main mix can be EQ'd inde-

pendently of the monitor mix. As a result, channel EQ settings do not

affect the sound of the monitor signals, nor do the channel Gain controls

regulate their volume. (Note: with an independent monitor mix, it may

be beneficial to connect a graphic equalizer to the Monitor output for

feedback control. Also, remember that to turn a channel off completely,

you must turn off both the Gain and Mon controls).
5. Channel EFX Control
Each channel has an EFX (effects send) control which adjusts the level

of the channel signal being tapped off and sent to the MP6D effects bus.

This signal is post-fader and post-EQ; in other words both the channel

EQ controls and the channel Gain control affect it. Normally, the out-

put signal from the effects bus is internally routed to the Digital Effects

Processor. In this situation, the EFX control would regulate the intensity

of the built-in effects as it is heard on that channel's sound through the

main PA system and the Record Out jacks. In standard operating mode

with the built-in effects working, you would connect a regular on/off

footswitch (e.g. Yorkville model IFS-1A) to the EFX Footswitch/Send jack to turn the internal

effects on and off. See the section on this feature later in the manual for more information.

Alternatively, this signal can be connected to the input of an external effects unit and returned

via channel to any channel. If the effects unit uses 1/4-inch plugs, you would connect the

output of the unit to any one of the Balanced Line In jacks. In this mode, the internal effect

is not bypassed, so if you are not planning to use an internal effect, you must turn down the

Main Effects and Monitor Effects Master controls. Also, if you do not require any effects at all,

the effects bus output signal can be connected to the input of an additional monitor system or

other amp/speaker system via the EFX Footswitch/Send jack using a standard shielded patch

cord. In this case, the EFX controls would act as send controls to achieve a semi-separate mix

(remember the channel Gain controls will also affect this signal).

Master Section

1. Main Master Control & Clip LED
The Main Master control adjusts the overall level of the main mix and the PA volume. Beside

this control is a Clip LED that indicates high signal levels within the main mixing bus. Reduce

the Main Master or the channel Gain settings if the Main Clip LED is more than slightly active.

(Note: to ensure maximum signal headroom and clarity, operate the mixer with the Main

Master set at around 7 or so. This way, you will be running the channel Gain controls at lower

settings, which helps to ensure that the channels do not clip).
2. Monitor Master Control
The overall level of the monitor mix is adjusted with the Monitor Master control. Beside it is a Clip

LED that indicates high signal levels within this bus. Reduce the Monitor Master or the channel Mon

levels if the Monitor Clip LED is more than slightly active. (Note: as with the Main Master, keep the

Monitor Master at a relatively high setting to prevent clipping the bus).
3. Main Effects Master Control
The Main EFX master control regulates the amount of signal going from the output of the inter-

nal Digital Effects Processor to the Main mixing bus where it is mixed with the dry signals

direct from the channels. It controls overall effects intensity on the Main Line Out signal and

Record Out signal, as well through the main PA speakers.
4. Monitor Effects Master
The Monitor EFX master control regulates the amount of signal going from the output of the

internal Digital Effects Processor to the Monitor mixing bus where it is mixed with the dry

signals direct from the channel Mon send controls. It controls overall effects intensity of the

Monitor Line Out signal.
