EURODESK SX2442FX/SX3242FX User Manual

These selector switches route the effect signal to the main mix or to the 

[65]

subgroups 1-2 or 3-4. If the MAIN/SUB switch is not pressed, the effect 

signal is sent to the main mix and the SUB 1/2 / SUB 3/4 switch below is 

inoperative. If the upper switch is pressed (SUB), however, the lower 

switch determines whether the effect signal is routed to subgroups 1 and 2 

(SUB 1/2) or 3 and 4 (SUB 3/4).

Fig. 2.26: FX send and return connectors

The 

[66]

FX SEND 1 and 2 connectors also provide the master FX send signals, 

for example, to connect them to the inputs of an external effects device. 

However, these are “dry” signals only with no “effect signals” from the 

built-in effects processor!
The Stereo 

[67]

FX RETURN inputs 1 and 2 return the effect signals from external 

effects processors and add them to the main mix.

The 

[68]

FOOTSW(ITCH) connector al ows you to connect a standard dual 

footswitch to separately enable/disable FX 1 or FX 2. The tip of the ¼" plug 

controls FX 1, the ring controls FX 2.

Use the 

[69]

POWER switch to put the mixer into operation. This switch should 

always be in the “Off” position when you connect your unit to the mains.
Please note: The POWER switch does not ful y disconnect the unit from 

◊ 

the mains. To disconnect the unit from the mains, pull out the main 
cord plug or appliance coupler. When instal ing the product, ensure the 
plug or appliance coupler is readily operable. Unplug the power cord 
when the unit is not used for prolonged periods of time.

With the 

[70]

PHANTOM switch you can activate the phantom power supply 

for the XLR connectors of the mono channels for condenser microphones. 

The +48 V-LED (37) il uminates when phantom power is on. In most cases, 

dynamic microphones can still be used as long as they are connected in 

a balanced configuration. If in doubt, please contact the manufacturer of 

your microphone!
The mains connection is a standard IEC receptacle. An appropriate power 

[71]

cord is supplied with the unit.
FUSE HOLDER

[72]

. Before connecting the unit to the mains, ensure that 

the voltage setting matches your local voltage. Blown fuses should only 

be replaced by fuses of the same type and rating. Please also read the 

information given in chapter 6 “Specifications”.

Digital Effects Processor

3.  

Fig. 3.1: List of all effects presets

99 FIRST-CLASS PRESETS

 

Here is the list of all multi-effects presets. The built-in 

effects processor offers you various standard effects such as 

reverb, chorus, flanger, delay and a variety of combination 

effects from our renowned studio effects processor 

VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP2024P. Use the FX control on the channels and the FX SEND 

control to supply the effects processor with signals. A built-in digital stereo 

effects processor has the benefit of no external wiring, thus reducing the risk of 

ground loops or level differences. Handling is therefore much easier.

PARALLEL FX
The effects presets 1 to 70 provide classic “add-to-mix” effects. So, when you 

turn up the FX 1 (or 2) TO MAIN control, you create a mix of the (dry) channel 

signal and the effect signal. The balance between the two signals can be set 

with the FX send and FX 1/2 TO MAIN controls.
This also applies to adding effect signals to the AUX 1 (or 2) monitor mix,  

with the exception that the mix here is adjusted with the  AUX 1 (or 2) control in 

the channel strip and the FX TO AUX 1 (or 2) potentiometer. Of course, the effects 

processor must receive a signal from the channel using the FX 1 (or 2) control. 

Make sure that the PRE switch in the corresponding channel strip(s) is pressed. 

Otherwise, the AUX buses will be set post-fader making the volume of the 

AUX monitor signal dependent on the position of the channel fader(s).

INSERT FX (channel is muted)
Effects presets #71 and higher process the entire signal, unlike the “add-to-

mix” effects. When you use an insert preset, be sure to separate the respective 

channel from all buses (SUB button and MAIN button not pressed) and only 

route the effect signal to the main mix (FX 1/2 control, FX SEND 1/2 control and 

FX TO MAIN 1/2 control).

The channel fader of the corresponding channel remains active and 

◊ 

governs (in combination with the FX controls) the signal level sent to 
the built-in effects processors.
