TC Electronic TC 2290 User Manual

4.7 Installation with a mixer
The input signal to the TC 2290 can be taken from an Aux/Effects Send
or an insert point on your mixer.
Adjust the <INPUT GAIN> so that the yellow LED (0OdB) only lights
momentarily. As <INPUT GAIN> setting is rather critical please refer to
section [5.1] if you are in doubt.
The outputs of the TC 2290 may be returned to a stereo Aux/Effects
Return.
Another possibility is through two separate channels on the mixer.
Remember to set the two return channels pan controls in opposite
directions.
4.7.1 Used as an ‘Insert’ Effect
In this mode the TC 2290 only affects the signals of the channel from
which the output to the TC 2290 is taken.
It is possible to return the signal to the same channel but only in mono and
thus without the stereo possibilities of the TC 2290. To do a ‘insert' stereo
return you need yet another channel insert input. Or as mentioned above,
use a stereo effects return or 2 separate channels on the mixer.
4.7.2 Used as an ’Aux’ Add-on Effect

AUX RETURN
fig.4.7.2 Aux/Effects Send installation with a mixer.
Here the TC 2290 is operated with input from the Aux/Effects Send from
the mixer ~ in this way the TC 2290 can receive input from ‘a mix’ of
channel signals.
It is the Aux/Effects Send control on each of the channels of the mixer
that decides what TC 2290 should receive from that channel.
The outputs from TC 2290 are returned to the mixer using either the
Aux/Effects Stereo Returns on the Master section or two seperate input
channels.
In this situation it is generally preferable that the direct signal part of TC
2290 output is muted so that only the effect part of the signal is added to
the mastersignal.
Note however, that it may be desirable to use the direct part of the signal
for some effects doing e.g. ‘tremolo’ or ‘autopanning’ to the direct signal
part. Factory preset no.g2 (auto panning) is an example of treatment of the
direct signal only.
When treating direct signal, you should of course turn down the channel
faders of the appropiate channels to avoid having direct signal from two
sources.
Please check the Special Number 17 in sec.[9.4] to control the TC 2290
direct signal part independent of presetcontrol.
