1 MIC INPUT
XLR-F balanced microphone input.

6.35 mm. (1/4”) balanced line input. You may also use an
unbalanced cable.
3 INSERT - ONLY IN 8FX (IN 1-2) AND 12FX (IN 1-4)
MODELS
6.35 mm. (1/4”) TRS socket. This socket allows you to connect
external devices (e. g. a compressor, an EQ, etc.) to process the
signal. For this connection use a "Y" cable, plugging to this socket
a TRS connector (tip = send, ring = return, and sleeve = ground)
then connect the external device with two TS connectors, one
for input and one for the output.
4 GAIN - 6FX (IN 1-2) 8FX (IN 1-4) E 12FX (IN 1-6)
This knob adjusts the gain of the microphone or line signal,
turn it to the right to raise the level, or to the left to decrease it.
5 LOW CUT - 8FX (IN 1-4) E 12FX (IN 1-6)
This switch activates the hi-pass lter to reduce the frequencies
from 75Hz down.
Use it to avoid that microphones connected to the input channels
will pick up unwanted signals rich of low frequencies.
6 COMP - 8FX (IN 1-2) E 12FX (IN 1-4)
This knob simultaneously adjusts compression threshold and
ratio.
Turning the knob hard left, the compressor is turned off, turning
to the right you activate it, until the maximum compression to
+ 10. Use this control, for example, to make voices levels more
homogeneous.
7 EQ - 6FX (IN 1-2) 8FX (IN 1-4) E 12FX (IN 1-6)
Use this three-band equalizer to boost or to cut the
HI, MID, LOW frequencies to get the best mix in any
environment.
8 AUX - 12FX ONLY
This knob adjusts the signal sent to AUX SEND.
Use it to connect the mixer to an additional effects
unit or to stage monitors.
9 PRE/POST - 12FX ONLY
This selector determines whether the AUX send level
is independent (PRE) or is influenced (POST) by the
channel level control.
Generally it is used PRE to send the signal to stage
monitors or IEM, POST to send the signal to an
external effect unit.
10 DFX POST
This send, influenced by the individual channel
level control, adjusts the signal sent to the internal
effects or to an external effects connected to DFX
SEND output.
11 PAN
This knob adjusts the signal position in the stereo
eld.
12 MUTE & LED - 12FX ONLY
Press this button to mute the selected channel
source.
The lit LED indicates the MUTE activation.
13 PFL & LED - 12FX ONLY
Press this button to check channel signal level
before the fader.
It works also when the channel is muted; the led
