The signal of CH1 routed to each pair of stereo outputs. To add signal from the CH2 input to the
STEREO A outputs, use the level controls in the same zone (STEREO A / OUT 1-2) in the second
row CH2.
Create stereo mixes with the LEVEL and PAN controls on the front panel of the MTX-8800. Each
row on the front panel (e.g. CH1) corresponds to one input. Each zone on the front panel (e.g.
STEREO A / OUT 1-2) corresponds to a pair of stereo outputs. Use the LEVEL control to add
signal to each pair of stereo outputs. Use the PAN control to balance the signal between the left
and right outputs.

APPLICATION EXAMPLES
The MTX-8800 extends the capabilities of a standard mixing console by providing 8 additional
auxiliary sends, use it to create stereo or mono mixes for a variety of applications, e.g. for
personal and loudspeaker monitoring, multitrack recording and monitoring, stereo effect sends,
zone mixing and matrix mixing.
A. Personal Monitoring & Loudspeaker Monitoring
Monitoring
The MTX-8800 gives you the
possibility to create personal
mixes for vocalists or
instrumentalists for live and
studio applications without
having to reconfigure the
existing setup of a mixing
console.
Loudspeaker monitoring
Mixing consoles often do not
provide enough dedicated
outputs for monitoring
applications. Even if each
performer has its own
speaker cabinet, he does not
get his own mix. With the
MTX-8800 you can provide
those individual mixes for
each band member,
regardless how different
each mix needs to be.

Multitrack monitoring
Use the MTX-8800 input connectors to
insert it between the 8 outputs of a
multitrack recorder or a soundcard and
the line inputs of another mixing
console. You can mix the outputs to 4
individual stereo cue mixes without
interrupting the signal flow of the mixing
console.
Multitrack recording
You can also insert the MTX-8800 into
the insert paths of a mixing console.
