This diagram shows microphones attached to channels 1 to 4, and a CD+G player connected to the
line-level inputs of channel 7/8. An effects processor receives a mono input from the FX send, and its
stereo outputs connect to the stereo return inputs. A dual compressor is connected to the insert of channel
1, and 2, allowing vocal compression.
Mackie SRM450v2 powered speakers and SWA1501 powered subwoofers 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. Headphones are used for monitoring.
A laptop running Karaoke software connects to the USB port, and allows a 2-channel output to play in
the main mix.
The CD+G player allows karaoke text and graphics to be displayed on your TV monitor.
