MIXER 14:2

Chaining several Mixer 14:2 devices
Two chained Mixer 14:2 devices are connected like this, the top Mixer being the “Master” Mixer.
If you want more Mixer channels, you can chain several Mixer 14:2 devices.
D Select the existing Mixer 14:2 device and choose “Create:Mixer 14:2” from the Create menu or context menu.
The new Mixer is automatically connected via the “Chaining Master” and “Chaining Aux” connectors of the se-
lected Mixer.
• The newly created Mixer’s Master Output is connected to the original Mixer’s Chaining Master input.
The Master Out Level for the new Mixer is now controllable from the original Mixer’s Master fader - so that this
fader now controls the Master output level of both mixers.
• The newly created Mixer’s four stereo Aux Send outputs is connected to the original Mixer’s Chaining Aux con-
nectors.
The new Mixer will now have access to any Aux Send effects connected to the original Mixer, via the same corre-
sponding Aux Send(s).
This way, the two Mixers operate as “one”.
! One exception is the Mute/Solo function, which is not chained. Thus, soloing a channel in one of the Mixers,
will not mute the channels in the other Mixer.
You can create as many Mixers as you like, they will be chained in the same way, with one Mixer remaining the “mas-
ter” (i.e. it controls the Master level of all chained Mixers and supplies the Aux Send effect sources).
Partially or Non-Chained Mixers
You can also have several Mixers that are only partially or not chained at all.
• You may for example wish to have different Aux Send effects for one Mixer.
Then simply disconnect one or more of the Send Out to Chaining Aux connectors, and assign new Send effects.
D You could for example send the Master output of one Mixer to another Mix Channel device, instead of the
Chaining Master inputs.
