This diagram shows two microphones attached to channels 1 and 2, a CD player connected to the line-
level inputs of channel 3/4, a CD turntable connected to the line-level inputs of channel 7/8. 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. A reverb and compressor are con-
nected to the insert of channel 1 allowing vocal compression and a touch of reverb.
Mackie SR1530z powered speakers are connected to the left and right main output. Two SRM450v2
powered speakers are set up as stage monitors, and connect to the mixer's monitor output. The aux mon
controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix that is independent of the main mix.
Switch the internal graphic EQ to adjust the stage monitor EQ if desired. Headphones are used for moni-
toring.
A laptop connects to the USB port, and allows 2-channel output of DJ software to play in your main
mix. It also can be used to record your set on the computer for posterity.
