== Aux Output ==
=== Overview ===
The output of any of the Channels 1, 2, 3, 4/5 can be sent to the Aux out. Options:
 
* With or without ToneMatch™ Presets
[[Image:T1Aux.png|right]]
* With or without Effects (except Reverb)
The output of any of the Channels 1, 2, 3, 4/5 can be sent to the Aux out. You can take the Aux out to provide a separate mix for recording or running to another {{L1}} or separate amplification system.
* Pre / Post the individual Channel volume controls.
 
Tap points where you can set the output to the Aux.<ref name="AuxTap">Aux Tap Points from page 26 of the {{T1 Manual}}</ref>
 
* Dry: After Preamp: The completely dry (no processing) signal is routed directly from the preamp stage.
* Pre: With EQ & FX: The signal is routed from the preamp stage with applied processing.
* Post: After Fader: The signal is routed after the Channel volume control with applied processing.

The "shared" effects typically come into the board through an AUX return, which is not channel specific.

=== Aux Out to a {{S1}} ===
The Aux Out is balanced mono and suitable to connect to the {{S1}} Channel 1 or 2.
For best results use a 1/4 inch (6 mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve cable. A 1/4 inch (6 mm) Tip-Sleeve cable will have up to -6dB lower signal and be more susceptible to line noise.
{{:S1 Pro with T1}}
=== Aux Out to a separate System ===
==== Aux Out to Headphones ====
The Aux Out is balanced mono intended to be connected to the balanced input of another device at line-level. This may also work with headphones but the volume will be very low and likely not loud enough to be heard over live stage volume.
If you connect to a stereo input, the signals for Left and Right may cancel out. This might not be an issue for headphones as the Left and Right signals are not combined.
==== Aux Out to In-Ear-Monitors ====
The Aux Out is balanced mono intended to be connected to the balanced input of another device at line-level. This may also work with headphones but the volume will be very low and likely not loud enough to be heard over live stage volume.
If you use an In-Ear-Monitor system that has built-in amplification, this may work.
If you connect to a stereo input, the signals for Left and Right may cancel out. This might not be an issue for headphones as the Left and Right signals are not combined.
==== Input Directed to Aux Out Only ====
To direct an input exclusively to Aux see: [[T1 ToneMatch® Audio Engine / Aux to a Separate System]]

So it's almost perfect for me, besides the missing reverb on aux out.

A note about the missing reverb on aux out.  Wolfgang is correct. There is no reverb on aux out. For details see:
