AUX SEND (FX)
The AUX SEND (FX) jack carries the master aux mix (from the channel’s
FX controls). You can connect this to an external eects device to process the
FX bus. The processed signal can then be brought from the eects device back
into the STEREO AUX RETURN jacks.
2.3.3 Stereo aux return connectors
UB1832FX–PRO UB2442FX–PRO
Fig. 2.9: The aux return connectors
◊ On the UB2222FX-PRO, UB1832FX-PRO and UB1622FX-PRO the
STEREO AUX RETURN jacks are located on the front panel of the unit.
STEREO AUX RETURN
The STEREO AUX RETURN 1 jacks generally serve as the return for the eects
mix (created using the post-fader aux sends) by connecting the output of an
external eects device. If only the left jack is connected, the AUX RETURN is
automatically switched to mono.
◊ You can also use these jacks as additional line inputs.
All stereo aux returns are balanced, but can of course also be used with
unbalanced connectors. If you use an aux send for monitoring, the associated
unused stereo aux returns are available for other line level signals
(e.g. keyboards).
◊ A signal fed into the stereo return jacks can be output via an aux
send jack. More information on this can be found in chapter 2.3.5
“STEREO AUX RETURN 1/2 (TO AUX SEND)”.
STEREO AUX RETURN FX
The STEREO AUX RETURN FX jacks accept the eects mix return (created using
the channel FX sends). If these jacks are already in use as additional inputs,
you can route the eects signal back into the console via a dierent channel.
The advantage of this is that you can now use that channel’s EQ on the eects
return signal.
◊ In this instance, the FX control of the channel being used as an effects
return should be turned fully counterclockwise, otherwise feedback
problems could occur!
◊ If you wish to use the internal effects processor, do not plug any
connectors into the STEREO AUX RETURN FX jacks, unless you want
to tap the processed signal via the FX OUT (UB2222FX-PRO and
UB2442FX-PRO only).
2.3.4 The monitor section of the UB1832FX-PRO
One of the ways that the UB1832FX-PRO diers from the other models of this
series is that it has a separate monitor output.
UB1832FX-PRO

The rst aux send (MON) on this console is used to set up the monitor mix from
the channels and route it to the MON SEND fader.

MUTE
Press the MUTE switch to mute the monitor send.
SOLO
The SOLO switch routes the monitor send to the solo bus (post-fader and
post-mute) or to the PFL bus (pre-fader and pre-mute). The position of the MODE
switch in the main section determines which of the buses is selected.
2.3.5 Stereo aux return control
STEREO AUX RETURN 1
The STEREO AUX RETURN 1 control determines the level of this signal in the
main mix. If STEREO AUX RETURN 1 is used as eects return, this will determine
the level of the eects when mixed with any “dry” channel signal.
◊ When used in this way, the effects device should be set at 100% effect.
