19.4 Section Control Room
In the section Control Room the menu Assign is used to define the Main Out which is used for
listening in the studio. For this output the functions Dim, Recall, Mono, Talkback and External
Input are automatically applied. On the unit the button DIM also follows this assignment.
Additionally the channel will be shifted from the Hardware
Outputs into the Control Room section, and renamed Main.
The same happens when assigning Main Out B or the Phones.
The original name can be displayed by the function Names in
the View Options - Show at any time.
Phones 1 to 4 will have dim (set in Settings) and a special
routing applied when Talkback is activated. Also putting them
beside the Main Out increases the overview within the output
section greatly.
Dim. The volume will be reduced by the amount set in the
Settings dialog (F3).
Recall. Sets the gain value defined in the Settings dialog.
Speaker B. Switches audio from Main Out to Main Out B. The faders of the channels Main and
Speaker B can be ganged via Link. Via Options / Key Commands switching to Speaker B can
also be controlled by the unit’s OUT, A, B and DIM button.
Mono. Mixes left and right channel. Useful to check for mono compatibility and phase problems.
Talkback. A click on this button will dim all signals on the Phones outputs by an amount set up
in the Preferences dialog. At the same time the control room's microphone signal (source de-
fined in Preferences) is sent to the Phones. The microphone level is adjusted with the channel's
input fader.
External Input. Switches Main monitoring from the mix bus to the
stereo input defined in the Settings dialog (F3). The relative volume of
the stereo signal is adjusted there as well.
Assign. Allows to define the Main Out, Main Out B, and up to four
Phones outs.
The output for the Cue signal, which is usually Main, can also be set to
one of the Phones outputs. The setting Cue/PFL to also controls the
PFL monitoring.
