  1. On the front panel you want to take a 1/4" cable and plug it into the "main" (output), and then connect it to the input of your fx unit (left is usually mono, if not it will be marked). Then take the output (corresponding to the input) of the fx unit and put it in the power amp in. The 8600D is NOT a stereo unit (this is why there is only one main output).

SOURCE: can i connect the pv 112 to the pv 118 subwoofer

Generally speaking you should only send low frequencies to subs. The highs, while lower in power than the lows, will over time harm the voice coils. The ideal way to do this is to use an external crossover netween the main output and the amp input with the higher range going to a general set of speakers. Send the lows through the second channel of the amp and then to the subs.

In short, while not recommended, yes you can hook them up in parallel.

SOURCE: i have the peavey xr

That's easily done. Simply connect the left(or right) output of your mixer to one of the channels on the peavey. Use any line input. Since the peavey is a mono system, there's no need sending a stereo mix to it.

If you run the speakers FROM the main you should have BOTH the effects and the EQ invilved with your signal.

How do I connect my Bose l1 compact to Peavey xr 8600?

You would come out of the Main output on the front of the mixer into the line in on the Bose.

Schaller pickup wont work

This is a high output piezo pickup but won't give line level signals expected by some inputs so I would guess you may be going into a line input. If so try a mic input (XLR) instead and see if that works.

I have a Peavey 8600D can I safely run 1 main

When you unload one amplifier you stand the chance of killing the amp's output transistor. If you must use only one speaker, you have to bridge the amps.

Hi i have an Allen and Heath ZED 22 with no onboard effects. I would like to use an external Behringher unit but am having difficulty in connecting the processed signal back to the mixer. i would like to...

Send audio from board via the "Aux1 Out" to the input of the effects unit. Now connect the output of the effects unit to "ST1" and control the amount of effects to each channel via each channels "Aux1" control. Adjust the Aux1 controls in the output stage (controls on the right side) for proper levels.

Older boards called this connection "effects send" for the output to the effect, and "effects return" for the effects out back to the board. The better choice was to use "effects send" into the effect but connect the effects output to an unused channel on the board. Using this scenario allowed EQ adjustments to be made before mixing it out to the amps and speakers.

One side of my peavey xr86000 power mixer blew a fusework

Any unit that blows fuses needs to be serviced. Do not keep putting in fuses only for them to be blown again. Each time you put in a fuse and it blows, it will create more damage to the amplifier.

Can I connect this mixer to a main mixer with 17 channels that is connected to an amplifier?

Yes you can - but do not use the loudspeaker outlets on the rear panel.
There are a variety of outputs on the front panel (bottom right as you look at it).
You can use the main output,  or monitor  send - (for monitor you may need to use the relevant 'send' switches on each channel to send signal to these outputs. 
You should also turn the power amp switch to main only (not main + monitor) so that the internal power amplifier is not connected to the monitor socket
You could also use the record out RCA (phono) sockets on the Peavey to connect to the CD / tape input on the main mixer.
You can download a pdf of the manual from here for more informationhttp://www.peavey-eu.com/index.php

I have just bought a peavey xr800f powered mixer but unable to get echo on mics any help would be appreciated thanks

There are SEVERAL things to set. First is setting the EFX mix for those channels you want the effects to be active. Next, select the effect you want AND the TIME for the effect and FINALLY the amount of the effect output to go to the MAIN and MONITOR outputs. Also the effect disable button below the effects needs to be in the correct state. ALL of these have to be set for using the effects on the mics.
