Questions and answers
I have my keyboard on channel 9/10, how do U set it up to get a signal
To set up a PRESONUS StudioLive ARc Series mixer to get a signal from a keyboard connected to channel 9/10:
1. Connect the keyboard's audio output to the stereo input labeled channel 9/10.
2. Set the gain control to an appropriate level to avoid clipping.
3. Adjust the LEVEL knob for channel 9/10 to bring the signal into the mix.
4. Use the PAN control if needed to position the signal in the stereo field.
5. If you want to send the signal to the main mix, ensure the MAIN L/R button is engaged.
6. Use the EQ controls if tone shaping is needed.
This will route the keyboard audio through the mixer and into the main mix.
