3.9. Monitoring
3.9.1. Monitor display mode
Two monitor display modes are available:
x
The “STD” mode is simpler and just displays the level of the two channels
of the selected source, according to PPM ballistics, on a –50 dBFS to
0 dBFS scale. When monitoring an input (1, 2 or 3), the level displayed is
the same on both bargraphs. An “OVL” risk of overload icon appears
when a signal goes beyond – 3dBFS.
x
The “MULTI” mode shows, in addition to the above, the level of the three
Mic/Line inputs, after fader, before routing to the mix buses.
In either mode the display includes icons describing the status of the three Mic/Line
inputs: power mode, high-pass filters and phase.
To select the display mode, from the main menu using the joystick go downwards
to “Monitor” and push the joystick sideways to select the desired mode.
Press the “Esc” key (
6
) to leave the menu and see the resulting “Monitor” screen.
3.9.2. Selecting the Monitor source
When the display is on monitoring, selecting the source for level display and
headphone monitoring is quite straightforward:
Push the joystick: now the monitoring source and mode are “unlocked”. Move the
joystick sideways to select the source among the following:
In1, In2, In3, In1&2, BUS, USB, Out, Return/Line.
Click the joystick once again: the monitoring mode is now “locked”’ again.
This also happens automatically when the joystick is left “idle” for a few seconds.
3.9.3. Selecting the listening mode
It is also easy to select the listening mode:
Push the joystick to “unlock” the monitoring source and mode. Move the joystick
vertically to select among the following:
L/R, L/L, R/R, L+R, M+S, M-S, M/S
Note that some modes may not be available depending on the source being
monitored. For instance, Input 3 can only be monitored in “L+R” mode.
The joystick gets automatically “locked” after a few seconds, or you can click the
joystick immediately to “protect” it against undesired moves.
