effect presets spread across any of the mixer’s 32 full
featured channels, as well as the 8 mix busses and
Master L/R buss.

Inserts – how they work and how to route them
The SX1 has eight inserts that can be used across the
entire mixing console. Each of the 32 inputs has an
insert point, as well as the 8 return channels and the
master L/R buss. Unlike a great many other digital
consoles, the inserts can be external as well as inter-
nal, meaning you can physically strap that pair of
1176’s or BA6A’s across the stereo buss if you want.
The eight inserts are completely separate from one
another, meaning that Insert 1 can be an internal effect processor, while Insert 2 could be an external
EQ.
Essentially, you can configure eight separate inserts,
and choose where they are applied on the Mixer and
Channel pages. You can remember how this works
by imagining eight mono effects units that you have
configured. This adds powerful functionality to the
SX1’s routing abilities.
