Legacy AXS API
Auxiliary Sends
The Legacy AXS console provides a powerful Auxiliary Send system that provides
a complete set of options for Cue Sends (headphone feeds) and Effects Sends.
There are twelve (12) Auxiliary Buses, all of which may be used simultaneously.
The 12 Aux Buses are fed from the channels using the following sends:
Six (6) Mono Sends (1-6)
Three (3) Stereo Sends (7-12)
Each of the Auxiliary Sends feed their respective Auxiliary Summing Bus.
Aux Sends 9/10 and 11/12 can be used simultaneously, but will share the same
level and pan-pot.
All Aux Sends are sourced post-fader from the Large Fader path by default.
All Aux Sends may be switched to pre-fader in groups of four sends (1-4, 5-8, 9-
12) by engaging the PRE button associate with that group of four sends.
Aux Sends 5-12 may be switched from the Small Fader path on individual channels
by engaging the AUX 5-12 button in the 968 Small Fader controls.
Mono Auxiliary Sends 1-6 feed the 265 Mono Aux Masters in the Master Section 1-6. Stereo Auxiliary
Sends 7-12 feed the 265 Stereo Aux/Cue Masters 7/8, 9/10, and 11/12 in the Master Section.
Any Aux Send can be used for any purpose. Mono Aux Sends 1-6 are primarily used as effects sends
during recording and mixing. Stereo Aux Sends 7/8, 9/10, and 11/12 are typically used as cue sends
during recording and as stereo effects sends during mixing.
Mono Sends (1-6)
Each pair of mono Aux Sends uses dual mono “concentric” pots for level control.
The odd numbered send is controlled by the inside or top pot and the even
numbered send is controlled by the outside ring or bottom pot.
Stereo Sends 7-12
Stereo Aux Sends use “concentric” pots for level and pan. The stereo send LEVEL
is controlled by the inside or top pot and the PAN is controlled by the outside
ring or bottom pan-pot. Because stereo Aux Sends pass through a pan-pot,
their levels at the extremes of the pan control are equal to that of the other
sends, and are 2dB or 2.5dB down when the pan-pot is centered.
Mono Aux Sends 1-6
Aux Sends 1-6 are mono auxiliary sends typically used as effects sends.
Aux Sends 1-6 are fed post-fader from the Large Fader path by default.
ON (on/off): On/off switch for each pair of mono Aux Sends
Illuminates when the pair is ON
1-6 (Level): Mono level potentiometer for each mono send
PRE (Pre-Fader): Engaging the PRE button will switch sends 1-4 and 5-8 to be
sourced pre-fader from the assigned path.
Normally fed post-fader from the Large Fader path
