AUX SEND 3 (FX)
The FX control determines the signal level for eects processing, i.e. regulates
the level to an external (or the internal) eects device.
X1622USB and X1832USB: On these consoles, this function is performed by
the AUX SEND 2 control (FX).
SOLO
You can use the SOLO switch to separately monitor the aux sends via the
CONTROL ROOM/PHONES outputs and check these with the level meters.
If you want to monitor the signal of just one AUX bus, none of the other
SOLO SWITCHES should be pressed and the MODE switch should be in
the SOLO position (not depressed).
Aux send jacks2.3.2
Aux send jacksFig. 2.8:
AUX SEND jacks
The AUX SEND jack should be used when hooking up a monitor power amp or
active monitor speaker system. The relevant aux path should be set pre-fader.
On the X2222USB, aux send 1 is hard wired as pre-fader and hence
called MON. Model X1832USB has a dedicated monitor output
(MON OUT jack), cf. chapter 2.3.4.
As already mentioned, the aux sends in the channels— if set post-fader—
can be used to connect to external eects devices.
AUX SEND (FX)
The AUX SEND (FX) jack carries the master aux mix (from the channel’s FX controls).
You can connect this to an external eects device to process the FX bus.
The processed signal can then be brought from the eects device back into
the STEREO AUX RETURN jacks.
Stereo aux return connectors2.3.3
The aux return connectorsFig. 2.9:
On the X2222USB, X1832USB and X1622USB the STEREO AUX RETURN
jacks are located on the front panel of the unit.
STEREO AUX RETURN
The STEREO AUX RETURN 1 jacks generally serve as the return for the eects
mix (created using the post-fader aux sends) by connecting the output of
an external eects device. If only the left jack is connected, the AUX RETURN
is automatically switched to mono.
You can also use these jacks as additional line inputs.
All stereo aux returns are balanced, but can of course also be used
with unbalanced connectors. If you use an aux send for monitoring,
the associated unused stereo aux returns are available for other line
level signals (e.g. keyboards).
A signal fed into the stereo return jacks can be output via an aux send
jack. More information on this can be found in chapter 2.3.5
“STEREO AUX RETURN 1/2 (TO AUX SEND)”.
STEREO AUX RETURN FX
The STEREO AUX RETURN FX jacks accept the eects mix return (created using
the channel FX sends). If these jacks are already in use as additional inputs,
you can route the eects signal back into the console via a dierent channel.
The advantage of this is that you can now use that channel’s EQ on the eects
return signal.
In this instance, the FX control of the channel being used as an effects
return should be turned fully counterclockwise, otherwise feedback
problems could occur!
If you wish to use the internal effects processor, do not plug any
connectors into the STEREO AUX RETURN FX jacks, unless you want to
tap the processed signal via the FX OUT (X2222USB and X2442USB only).
The monitor section of the X1832USB2.3.4
One of the ways that the X1832USB diers from the other models of this series
is that it has a separate monitor output.

The rst aux send (MON) on this console is used to set up the monitor mix from
the channels and route it to the MON SEND fader.
