M-200i: How to Setup an AUX Send for Monitoring or Broadcast
The following article will guide through setting up an AUX send for sending to a monitor/wedge or a broadcast mix.
The example below will use AUX 1 and the physical output 1 of a S-1068 snake box connected to the M-200i's REAC port. However, this example can be used on any connected Roland snake box or the M-200i's console outputs.
AUDIO CONNECTION
- Connect the M-200i's REAC port to the REAC port of the Roland digital snake.
- Connect the audio output 1 from the snake box to the amp/powered speaker or the broadcast mix input (e.g. an audio interface connected to a computer).
