For Live Performance
The GNX4 was designed to be extremely flexible to meet any of your application needs. For many GNX4
users,its primary purpose will be for use in live performances. Whether you are a solo performer who
spends weekends playing at a small club or the power-user playing the largest venues each night,the GNX4
has just what you need to do the gig right. The following diagrams show examples of how to utilize the
GNX4 in typical live performance applications.
Before connecting the GNX4, make sure both the GNX4 and your amplifier(s) are turned OFF.
