EMX3000—Owner’s Manual
As a band PA
Here is an example of using the EMX3000 as a small PA for a band. In this example, the monitor speakers are
being sent a mix that is independent of the MAIN speaker mix. An external effect such as delay or reverb is
also being used.
■ Connections
• Connect mics or instruments, such as keyboards,
to channel input jacks 1~12.
• Connect the main speakers to the SPEAKERS R/
MONO 1/2 jacks, and connect the monitor
speakers to the SPEAKERS L/MONI1 1/2 jacks.
Set the Power amp select switch to “MONI 1-
MONO.”
• If you use an external effect such as delay or
reverb, connect the EMX3000’s EFFECT jack to
the input jack of the external effect, and connect
the output jack of the external effect to the
EMX3000’s ST SUB 1.
Note: If you are using an external effect, we
recommend that you turn down all the EF-
FECT controls of the digital effect section.
You can connect the output of an external ef-
fect to channels 9/10 and 11/12 to apply the
equalizer to the effect return signal. However in
this case, make sure that the EFFECT controls
are turned all the way down for the channels
into which the effect sound is being input. If
the EFFECT controls are raised, feedback will
occur, and your speakers may be damaged.
