According to Mackie, their aux sends are +22dBu.

I too have found using aux sends gets one real close to where they might
want to be at the input of a MOTM module. Ihave also used headphone outs on
a mixer for the same purpose.

The maximum input level is +22dBu as well, according to Mackie.

I have found MOTM levels to be right of the edge of being too hot into a
mixer like this. Of couse, for a MOTM output going to a mixer, if would be
simple enough to just divide the voltage coming out of the MOTM with a
couple of resistors priot to going into the mixer.
