The console functions are grouped into three areas: inputs and monitors (on
the left), virtual output mixing controls (in the middle), and outputs (on the
right hand side). The controls for a particular function/stereo pair are then
further grouped into a box that contains selection buttons, faders, and other
controls and displays as determined by the function.
Input Controls
Let’s take a look at the control surface. The
input control area is located in the upper left
portion of the console surface. For each
input device pair you will find a pair of input
meters. In addition, the analog inputs have
controls that allow you to select between
+4dBu (professional) input levels or –
10dBV (consumer) input levels. Clicking on
the button will toggle back and forth
between the two levels.
Monitor Controls
Below the input channels are the input
monitor controls. These allow you to
monitor the input signal via any of the
outputs on your Mia. Each input channel pair
has a corresponding monitor control pair
directly below it on the console. At the top
of each monitor pair are radio buttons that
allow you to selectively mute (M) or solo (S)
each channel. In the middle you will find a
pair of faders that will allow you to set the
levels of the monitor signals. At the bottom
of the control area there is a radio button that allows you to “gang” (G) the
faders. Ganging the faders ties them together so that they will maintain their
relative placement with regard to each other. Below each fader is its
corresponding pan control. In the default pan positions (see example below)
