Monitoring
pg | 16
The monitor system allows for both studio loudspeaker 
monitoring and headphone monitoring.
Loudspeaker monitoring is via a stereo jack socket on the rear panel 
and the audio feed to this is controlled from the monitor volume 
control and also a mute system activated by the fader on channel 1.                                                                                  
The headphone output is via a stereo jack on the front panel. The 
volume is also controlled from the monitor volume control but it is  
not interrupted by the mute function.
Caution, keep the monitor volume control turned well down as  
high audio outputs are possible from the monitor system.
Monitoring is normally from the groups and audio is shown on the 
VU meters. When a PFL button is pressed, an indicator red light turns 
on in monitoring and the audio from the groups is replaced by the 
individual channel signal selected by the PFL button.
An overall monitor switch (master/return) allows for external line  
level feeds to go direct to monitor via the ‘return’ system. The 
external input volume is controlled by the monitor return control.  
This overrides all monitor functions.
The monitor system has facility for polarity reverse, mono and dim, 
these are simple push-button controls used to quality check  
monitor audio.
