This diagram shows various microphones attached to channels 1 to 4, a guitar mic on channel 5/6, a 
guitar effects processor connected to the left line-level input of channel 7/8, and a keyboard attached to 
channel 9/10's line-level inputs. An iPod docking station is attached to the stereo tape inputs. An effects 
processor receives a mono input from the FX send, and its stereo outputs connect to the stereo return 
inputs. An assistive listening system is connected to the line-level main output. Dual compressors are con-
nected to the inserts of channels 1 to 4, allowing vocal compression.
Mackie SR1521z powered speakers are connected to the left and right main output, via a compressor/
limiter. Two SRM450v2 powered speakers are set up as stage monitors, and connect to the mixer's moni-
tor output via a graphic EQ. The aux mon controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor 
mix that is independent of the main mix. Use the external graphic EQ to adjust the stage monitor EQ as 
desired. Headphones are used for monitoring.
A laptop connects to the USB port, and allows the 2-channel main mix of the service to be recorded us-
ing Tracktion software. Two channels of audio can also play from your computer to the main mix.
