BOOTH OUTPUT
The Booth output is provided on both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA phono connectors, and is controlled by the master Booth level control. A 'Mic Defeat' switch mutes the signal from the mic to the booth output to avoid feedback.

Aux/FX LOOP
The send-and-return Aux/FX loop is supplied on unbalanced RCA phono connectors, and works in conjunction with the top panel Aux/FX level and routing controls.

PHONES SECTION

EXTERNAL MUTE FUNCTION
This contact port will mute all music channels except Mic input 1, to allow PA announcements. Useful for fire alarm systems.
