| Auxiliary Outputs |
| |
| Auxiliary outputs, or auxes,
are incredibly useful tools. If you can, picture the
signal coming into the mixer, going
through the gain and the EQ, then hitting an aux knob.
That knob controls how much of that
signal from that channel gets sent into that aux out. |
| |
| Two other common uses for
auxes are reverbs (device that simulate reverberation
effects) and subwoofers (loudspeakers
designed to reproduce lower frequencies than normal
speakers can play). |
| |
| Faders, Pre/Post Fader
auxes |
| |
| The fader is used to set
the volume of that channel's signal in the mix. It is
the most basic component in any channel
strip. Faders are essentially volume sliders, set in a
logarithmic scale of dB. Faders are also used
to set the volume of the buses, or subgroups, and the
main mix or mixed mono, and
VCA's if applicable. |
| |
| Auxes, are normally
pre-fader by default. This means that changing the level
of a channel on the fader will not affect
the sound of that channel in the auxes. Just after the
auxes, is a pan knob. This is simply used
to "pan" the channel's signal to left or right. All the
way to the left would put the signal only
in the left signal, and vice versa, with the middle
sending equal to both sides. |
