Stereo Effects Processors
PHANTOM
There are two identical Mackie Running-Man
POWER AMP

LIMITER
32-bit internal effects processors. They are mono-in,
A
B
stereo-out effects processors, with 24 presets each.
MAIN
METERS
Signals to these effects processors come from ad-

justing the FX1 aux send [35] and the FX2 aux send

[36] on each channel.

The stereo output from each processor can be

added to the main mix using the FX return faders

[57]. The output from FX1 can also be added to the

Very careful thought and lots of audio love has
gone into the design of the 24 presets. The engineers

These knobs control the level of the signals going
into each internal effects processor. Adjust them
MAX

carefully, with your inner magical eye on the adja-
cent SIG/OL LED [61] to prevent overloading the
effects processor.

These knobs also affect the levels going out of

the FX send line-level outputs [11], so you can use

them to adjust the level going to external effects

processors.

61. SIG/OL LED

20
30
These dual-LEDs illuminate in green when the
40
50
signal level going into each effects processor is in a
60
O O
good operating range (SIG). They illuminate in red
59
if the effects processor is being overloaded with too
strong a signal (OL). Turn down the send master
levels [60] if these come on regularly.
The signals going into the processors are affected
by the channel FX 1 and 2 aux sends [35, 36], and
the channel gain [23], EQ [27–32], and channel
faders [40]. If the OL LEDs come on after you adjust
any of these controls, turn down the send master
levels [60].
If you have an external processor connected (and
so the internal FX processors are not used) you can
still use these LEDs to judge the level going out.
