This diagram shows how you can use the mixer to control a home studio and a
home theater, using the same set of loudspeakers. This is useful if you are short on
space, or you are in love with a really nice pair of loudspeakers and want to share
them between your home theater and home studio.
A condenser microphone is connected to channel 1's mic input, with phantom
power engaged. The line-level output from a guitar amplifier modeler feeds the line
input of channel 2.
A laptop computer running the DAW of your choice is connected to the tape output,
so you can record channels 1 and 2.
The stereo line-level audio output from a cable box is connected to the tape inputs,
and the video output from the cable box connects to the TV monitor. If you press
"assign to main," the audio will be added to the main mix.
The stereo line-level audio output from a DVD player is connected to the line inputs
of channels 3 and 4, and the video output connects to the TV monitor.
A pair of headphones allows you to hear the main mix.
To use the home studio, sing and play your guitar, and record using the DAW, or
listen through the nice speakers. Turn down channels 3 and 4, and do not assign the
tape inputs to the main mix from the cable box.
To use the home theater, turn down channels 1 and 2. Select a program using the
cable box, and assign the tape inputs to the main mix. Listen to the audio in your nice
speakers. If you play a DVD, adjust channels 3 and 4, and turn off the "assign to
main" switch. Select the DVD video with your TV set.
