First a few conventions:
RED buttons mean that the associated signal source or output is OFF or MUTED
GREEN buttons mean ON or UNMUTED
A WHITE LINE around a button means this is the channel is in focus, and can be acted upon
by the faders or ON/OFF switch below the fader.
As you can see, the page is divided into input sources on the left and outputs on the right. What we are seeing here is
which input sources are assigned to the displayed output. We are not turning inputs On and Off, we are turning the
connection between an input and output On or Off. Think of it as a patch cable.
The ON/OFF button on the Inputs side patches that input source to the active output. On the Output side, the On/Off
button mutes or un-mutes the selected output.
The Mono button located underneath the Input Source Meters, can be activated when a
mono signal source is being monitored. When active (in Green below), this button sends
signal from both the Left and Right inputs to both channels of the associated output.
Essentially, this insures that the mono input signal will sounds as if it is panned in the
center of the stereo field.
This control is specific to the input source and output destination on the screen. If the
mono source is being sent to multiple destinations (i.e. Line Out AND Monitor Out) then
the Mono button will have to be pressed in for the input feeding each of these outputs.
Generally it is not advisable to activate MONO for a USB Record Device, as this could
add noise to the recording from the un-terminated input being summed with the active
input signal.
