Using the S curve 215 for Mains and Monitors

Using the S curve 215 in Insert Points

You can use the S curve 215 in your mixer’s insert points if you want to equalize one stereo, or two mono channels, individually in the mix. In
this example, the S curve 215’s Channel 1 INPUT and OUTPUT are inserted on a piano channel using a 1/4-inch TRS to 2 x 1/4-inch TS “Y”
cable. The S curve 215’s Channel 2 INPUT and OUTPUT are connected to the bass guitar channel using the same type of insert cable. For
more information on cable wiring see the S Curve 215 Wiring Guide page 15 in this manual.

In this example, the S curve 215 is used for both the main PA speakers running a mono mix, and for the monitor mix, also in mono. For the
main PA, the mixer’s MONO output is connected to the S curve 215’s Channel 1 INPUT. Then, the S curve 215’s Channel 1 OUTPUT is connect-
ed to the input of the right main PA active (self-powered) loudspeaker. The left main PA speaker is connected by “daisy-chaining” from the
right. For the monitor mix, the mixer’s AUX output is connected to the S curve 215’s Channel 2 INPUT. The S curve 215’s Channel 2 OUTPUT is
connected to the input of the monitor power amplifier operating in bridge mode. Finally, the power amplifier’s outputs are connected to the
passive (non-powered) monitor loudspeakers.
