How to very quickly set up for a band rehearsal
First, plug in
On stage, plug in your mics and instruments. You can refer to the blue folder (at the back of the mixing desk) to see what plugs in where.
Then, switch on
In the rack by the PA desk, enter the power-up code 6241.
Once the mixing desk has finished booting up, load the rehearsal template…
…everything should now work. The mix won’t necessarily be great, but people will be able to hear themselves in the room and in their in-ear monitors.
At the end of the rehearsal, it’s fine just to switch everything off with 6241 on the power controller – you don’t need to “save” anything on the mixing desk.
