21. Channel labels
These labels reflect the names entered in the VST Connections window.
22. Talkback Enable to Studio and talkback amount
In order for Talkback signals to be routed to a Studio, the Talkback En-
able to Studio button must be lit. Clicking on it turns it on or off. When
Talkback Enable is deactivated, the Talkback DIM setting has no effect
on this output.
The value below the button controls the amount of Talkback signal fed to
the output of each Studio.
23. Metronome Level and Pan
The Level and Pan controls determine how the Metronome will be heard
in each channel. These controls are independent for each channel.
24. Activate Metronome Click
This determines whether click signals are sent to each channel. When lit,
click signals will be heard in that output.
25. Channel Level control
This is the main volume for each Control Room output. These faders do
not affect recording input levels or the Main Mix level for exporting mix
-
downs.
26. Studio input selectors
For Studio channels, the input choices are External Input, Aux (from Stu-
dio Sends), or Monitor Mix.
27. Signal Presence Indicators
In the Preferences dialog, there is an option to display these Signal Pres-
ence Indicators as a substitute for the full size meters.
28. External input selectors
Up to six external inputs are available. These buttons determine which ex-
ternal input is currently being used. The names for the external inputs are
displayed here as they were entered in the VST Connections window.
The Monitor controls in the Control Room Mixer
29. Individual Speaker Solos
Each speaker icon is a solo button for that channel. [Shift]-clicking a
speaker will solo all the speakers in that row (front or rear). [Ctrl]/[Com
-
mand]-clicking on a speaker that is already soloed will mute that speaker
and solo all other channels.
Use the speaker solos to test your multi-channel speaker system and en-
sure that the proper channels are routed to each speaker.
30. LFE Solo
The “+” icon solos the LFE channel.
31. Solo Left and Right/Front/Rear Channels
These buttons solo the left and right channels, the front channels, or the
rear channels (from left to right).

This button defeats all speaker solos, resetting them to normal playback.
33. Listen to Rear Channels on Front Monitors
This button solos the rear channels and routes them to the front speakers.
34. Listen to Solo Channels on Center Monitor
When this button is enabled, all speakers that are soloed will be heard in
the center channel if there is one in the configuration. If not (as with stereo)
the soloed channel will be heard equally in both left and right speakers.
35. Open MixConvert Settings
Clicking on this tab opens the MixConvert plug-in used to downmix
multi-channel signals for monitoring. With this plug-in you can modify the
settings for each downmix preset.
Note that you can also double-click in the center of the speaker solo area
to open the MixConvert plug-in.
