However I am tired of constantly switching between the sub mixer which is very handy, for all my instruments and a direct connection to the main console which costs me two XLR connectors, and literally two mics less to connect
The cables are of 3m in length which is within the parameters of an instrument cable that should be no more than 6 - 9 meters. This means the cables are not picking up any noise from the environment

There are hundreds of ways of connecting an effect to your mixing console. There is one way to connect an effect to my sub mixer

When you use the Auxiliary busses you have to send the signal through a tip/sleeve cable to the effect, then return the signal to the console Aux return Channel. For a stereo effect you need to use two Aux busses.
Your console has send Pot. meters and return Pot. meters for every bus.

Just like with built in effects your Send is decided by Aux Send your Return is decided by Aux Return which gives The amount of decibels dB of the effect in the mix

If your console only has two Aux busses you can either use both for the stereo effect, or use one for two discrete effects if you do not wish to daisy chain them. You will then have two parallel effects which can be used layered on your whole mix.

In case you've used your monitor outputs on your console for a headphone Amp & you need one Aux bus to send a signal to a separate monitor on the ground, you will only be able to use mono effects in your mix using Aux bus two. I would advise you to use the headphone output from your sub mixer to feed your headphone amp.

You may also connect your effect using an insert cable so that it works dedicated only on one channel

The insert cable uses the tip as the Aux Send and the ring as the Aux Return

As you can see the possibilities are quite vast since it is very very easy to connect your beautiful effects from your Effect Rack to your console.

I've got this wonderful article here which explains it to the letter

Wiring inserts

Console insert end get's wired like this...

TRS:
Tip=send positive
Ring=return positive
Sleeve=neutral ground

Dynamic unit end get's wired like this

Input:
XLR/TRS
Pin 2/Tip=input positive and is connected to tip of insert TRS
Pin 1/Ring=input low and is connected to sleeve of insert TRS
Pin 3/Sleeve=input ground and is connected to sleeve of instert TRS

Output
XLR/TRS
Pin 2/Tip=output positive and is connected to ring of insert TRS
Pin 1/Ring=output low and is connected to sleeve of insert TRS
Pin 3/Sleeve=output ground and is connected to sleeve of insert TRS

Pin 3/Sleeve should be soldered to Pin1/ring on both input and output of dynamics unit
IE Pin 3/Sleeve on input is soldered to Pin1/ring on input and Pin 3/Sleeve on output is soldered to Pin 1/ring on output: shorting to ground

So if the dynamics has XLR input/outputs you'll wind up with a cable like this

TRS on one end and one male, one female XLR on the other end
Tip of TRS connects to pin 2 of male
Ring of TRS connects to pin 2 of female
Sleeve of TRS connects to pin 1 of male and female
Pin 3 of male and female get soldered to their respective pin 1's.

I discovered a interesting function on an effect of mine. The function auto ducks the frequencies where our voices reside so you can easily sing over regular songs.

I shall explore this Sub function further, but I know this already from other effects. This sub function is only briefly mentioned within the manual

The vocal auto ducking function only works when a dual channel signal is fed into the effect.
I had put a mono signal into the effect and it of course failed.

Now I have about two hundred(!) yes TWO HUNDRED more effects in my arsenal! So for my Bass Guitars & other instruments I now have ALL effects that I need extra, which I dont need as seperate discrete components. How? Go look up FX2000 and Behringer than come back here and tell me ;)

Here I can only do 500 bytes (why not 512?) so I post about that at bsd.cafe

Musicians should always check out which effect equipment is available in rack mount format.
This is especially important for Bass and Guitar 🎸 players

They should just ask engineers who will gladly provide the information. It is astounding to see how many pedal FX are sold for more than 300 USD, which are just two daisy chained FX easily achieved with rack mount FX units which have more than 100 different effects in total!

Now certain FX are handy to have in a separate unit, because I want to build my effect chain physically and they just sound different, in a nicer way, when you have them physical, as an analog effect unit
For those I gladly pay the 60 to 120 dollars for effect pedals, which are built like a tank, as portrait by the Joyo FX

Be very wary of Boutique FX when you are not a professional player, nor want to become a professional instrument player, because Boutique effects are Boutique
That means they are often just built in a series of 48 or less
That also means that you will pay between $400 and $1000 per unit, which Joyo can produce for you and sell for 60 to 100 USD, often surpassing the boutique unit simply because Joyo put in extra electronics!

Extra electronics to make sure that the effect sounds not just like the original, but even better.

Boutique effects do not have to be built like a tank

Joyo effect are always built like a tank.

Many Boutique Effects also lack certain critical features because the Professional player targeted has those on other FX units, which you don't possess

In this photograph you can clearly see the limitations of a very small image sensor in relationship to a highly Dynamic scene.

My Nikon bodies and my Sony body which also takes my Minolta Lenses, here 50mm f1.2, have much larger sensors and would have never failed in such a horrible manner.

In this scene I portray how good the lighting arrangement is on the Behringer rack mount effect

The session was extremely short and basically, I did some fine-tuning of certain critical parts of the Short Scale base.

After verifying that the fine tuning was done properly, I'll run the Bass session later this night

Has it been this long? I should have written down what I've done in between with my Bass Journey. I made contact with few people playing the styles that I like, in a musical jamming environment. These musicians are seasoned have been playing for 50 plus years and know their instruments. I've interacted with a Tenor Saxophone 🎷 player a trumpet player, and a bass player

I've run an early Bass session today. The setup of my effects are in the photographs
I can dwell on them, if you would want some extra information; the hashtags tell you which brands of pedals I use even though they are clearly visible in the photographs

#Music #Audio #Bass #ShortScale #Behringer #Guitar #SoundEngineering #Joyo #Pedal

The photograph depicts a vertical arrangement of illuminated lights against a dark background. The dominant color is red, with the word "TREM" from the effect tremolo, prominently displayed in bright red neon letters, suggesting a connection to a effect system. The letters are vertically aligned, with each letter separated by a small gap. Surrounding the word "TREM" are several red lights, some of which are rectangular and others are square, creating a pattern that could indicate operational status or signaling. Additionally, there are a few green lights, which are less prominent and appear at the bottom of the image. The overall effect is a stark contrast between the bright lights and the dark surroundings, emphasizing the illuminated elements.

The photograph was illuminated with a warming light and was also filtered with an 85 f warming filter

The photograph shows a collection of Joyo Bass guitar pedals arranged on a fabric with a tropical leaf pattern. The pedals are connected by unstable tip sleave cables, and some have illuminated LED lights. The top pedal is red and labeled "JOYO DARK ME..." Below it is a silver pedal with a knob and several knobs and switches, a Behringer pedal. The central pedal is red and labeled "JOYO GLOAM," with a green LED light on. The bottom pedal is black and labeled "JOYO D...," with a red LED light. The cables are connected to the pedals, suggesting they are part of a Bass guitar effects setup. The fabric background has a dark blue color with green and yellow leaf designs.

The photograph was composed with a warming light & was also filtered with 85f warming filter, giving interesting look to the scene
