This diagram shows a microphone connected to the mic input of channel 1, and a vocal compressor 
connected to the insert jack. A guitar is attached to the instrument input of channel 2, with the instrument 
switch pressed in, and a compressor on the insert. A bass guitar is connected to channel 3's mic input via 
a DI box, and another guitar plays through an amplifier modeler into channels 5 and 6. Keyboards are 
connected to the line inputs of channels 7 and 8.
An effects processor is connected to the aux send, with the aux send set to post-level. Effects are added 
to the main mix via the stereo return inputs, and adjusted with the stereo return level control.
To use the aux send for stage monitors instead of an effects processor, set the aux to pre-level so the 
monitor volume level can be adjusted independently from the main loudspeakers.
An iPod
TM
 docking station is connected to the tape RCA inputs, so you can play pre-recorded music  
during the breaks.
The main mix output connects to a pair of SRM650 powered loudspeakers to please your audience.
