Hi Mike,

This is a bit hard to answer without seeing your configuration, but here's how I'd go about it.

Run a tone (use something like 400Hz, so it's unique) through a direct line input to only one channel; don't assign any busses or subgroups at all. Open up the Aux send 1 for that channel and make sure all other sends are zeroed. Now take a scope or meter and hit the most logical patch bay points (I'd try to go by the labels that Neotek used for a start). When you find that signal, vary the level of the Aux send and see if you get a corresponding change in amplitude at the measurement point. If that works out, then go to Aux 2, etc. using the same procedure. The key is to try and minimize the other outputs also seeing the same signal so you can isolate it to the Aux sends. You can do the same on the returns by hooking the generator up there and monitoring at the other end. Good luck!

Regards, Jim

Now, here's another question in relation to this:

I had to hunt and peck to find the channel inputs, outputs, subs and stereo outs/control room outs using an audio source and tapping into every insert on the patchblock to find where it all went, because I never got a manual or document telling me what went where. I was lucky to have gotten as far as I did.

I want to get external effects routed through the board, and I have no clue how I'm going to figure out where the aux sends and receives would be on my patch block. I do have that standard patchbay built into the board which is labeled with probably all possible connections, but it's wired to the ADC patchblocks and there are so many wires to deal with. When I try a continuity check (thanks Frank) from the plugs to the block, everything rings out so I'm probably hitting a ground or something... Would it be safe to assume that the wire that comes off the plug on the patchbay would be routed to the correct place on one of the three patchblocks?

confirmed : at least on my series 1: effects on er1 and er2 can be fed to any sub or 2mix by echo 1 and echo 2 gain pot on each sub
and a master gain for echo1 echo2 located above the  subs



At the risk of sounding stupid, can someone confirm that on a Series 1E, that ER1 and ER2 are effects returns?

Can someone also confirm what the A, B, C and D pots are actually fed from? They look like they are foldback and echo levels from the submix section. If all I want to do is get some external effects processed through the board do I even care about these?

I've got the board up and running and processing audio to a computer interface and so far, so good.
