Solo system 115
PRO2 Live Audio System
Owner’s Manual
solo mode section
On the GUI, the solo mode section has a select button by which
you can select one of the following options. The LEDs to the left of
the options illuminate to show which option is in operation.
• normal — both solo systems (A and B), are active and behave
as a single solo system.
• broadcast — routes stereo masters to the monitor A output and
activates all the solo B controls so that soloed material is routed
to the monitor B outputs. This allows the master outputs to be
continually broadcast (probably the on-air program), while the
other material is soloed.
solo system section
The solo system section has three control knobs, as
follows:
• pfl level control knob — PFL audio bus may accept
injected external signals. This control knob adjusts
the pre-fader level in the range infinity (∞) to
+10dB.
• afl level control knob — AFL audio bus may accept injected external signals. This
control knob adjusts the after-fader level in the range infinity (∞) to +10dB.
• talk back control knob — adjusts the talk back level, in the range infinity (∞) to
+10dB.
The following four sections in the Monitors screen allow you to patch the solo system
signals.
• talkback input
•pfl direct input
• afl direct input left
• afl direct input right
For routing details, see Table 25 “Navigating to the Patching screen” on page 418.
