Professional Bluetooth Mixer
Connect the insert cable’s TRS end to the Mic FX Insert jack on the rear of the RM169.
Connect the Tip connection to your eects processor’s Input jack, and the Ring connection to the Output of the eects processor. The RM169 eects insert is mono, so if the
eects processor is stereo - choose a Mono output. You may need to refer to your eects
processor owners manual for more information about operating it in mono.
Make sure a microphone is properly connected to the RM169 and the unit is on. Speak
into the microphone and adjust the levels of your eects processor for the desired process and level of eect.
