Chapter 14: Monitors And
Communications
This chapter describes the monitoring and communications functions of the PRO Series.
Monitors (A and B)
To match the two-bus solo system there are two monitor outputs, A and B, which
control their respective output levels. These are controlled from the monitor section on
the master bay (see Figure 20 “Monitor A and B strips” on page 144). Each monitor
output has:
• The ability to monitor mono and stereo outputs, and an external input.
• An external talkback input.
• A local monitor output.
• A headphone output.
•Delay compensation.
• Control of the solo buses.
Although the capabilities of both monitors are the same, monitor A is the primary
output. They both have a fader control, and there are six balanced XLR outputs on the
rear panel (see “Monitor and assignable outputs/surround section” on page 268).
The monitor output controls do not have support from the screens and are not affected
by automation.
The analogue section of monitor has six balanced XLR outputs (see “Monitor and
assignable outputs/surround section” on page 268). These feed the six speaker XLRs
and two headphone sets. Monitor inputs are fed from the router/line I/O module that
contains digital solo source signals etc. converted to analogue, as selected on the
control surface.
Only the meters have GUI support. The monitor a and monitor b meters monitor the
peak signal levels of stereo left and right for both monitor paths. The metering
capabilities of both monitors is the same.
