The StudioLive features a headphone output as well as control-room outputs, giving you the ability
to monitor multiple sources on the StudioLive. The Monitor bus on the StudioLive allows you to
monitor the main outputs, Solo bus, main FireWire return from your computer, and the stereo analog
tape input. Because the Monitor Bus is a summing amp, you can even monitor the World Series on
your headphones while still running sound at a show.
