Here the icon is shown in a theatre setup typical of a small drama production. The
,
and
jack outputs feed external amplifiers to drive the front-of-house left, centre and right
loudspeakers. The built in
amplifiers (main outputs) are configured for

drives
an on-stage monitor speaker so that the performers can hear any backing music or sound
effects.
drives a parallel pair of delay fill speakers to reinforce the sound to the audience
seated to the rear of the auditorium. The
mix is set pre fader and derived from
which
is set up as a delay. Calculate the delay time in milliseconds
.
Raise the channel
‘wet’ sends to around position ‘48’and set up the
mix from FX1
only. Make sure the
fader is turned off to prevent any delayed signal in the main
mix.
Use the
fader to send only a small amount of delayed signal to the fill speakers. Too much
can be distracting rather than helpful to the audience. Alternatively, the
mix could be used
to feed a ‘hard-of-hearing’ loop system with ambient mic added to the mix.
Channels 1 to 7 are used for microphones: 3 front of stage ‘float’ mics, 2 hung ‘overhead’
mics, and 2 lavalier radio mics. Use directional mics and balanced connections for these.
Channel 8 shares both the sound effects player for the performance and a CD player for
intermission music. The
patch is used for the intermission settings with all microphones
muted.
