2.1.2 Connecting Devices to the Monitor Station V2’s Inputs
1. Zero the Monitor Station V2’s front-panel Main Output Level knob, the Cue Output
knob, and the individual headphone Level knobs by turning them fully
counterclockwise.
2. Connect your primary audio source (computer audio interface, mixer, or other
stereo source) to the balanced ¼” TRS ST1 L/R inputs on the back of your Monitor
Station V2.
3. If you have a secondary stereo audio source or cue audio source—such as other
interface outputs or the auxiliary outputs of your mixer—connect it to the
balanced ¼” TRS ST2 L/R inputs.
The Monitor Station V2 can accommodate a variety of analog
and digital input sources. Here’s how to attach them.
Phone, personal music player, or other device with 1/8” stereo output. Connect
the output to the rear-panel 1/8” Aux In jack using an unbalanced, stereo 1/8” cable.
(With a phone or personal music player, the headphone jack is its output.)
Analog audio device with RCA outputs. Connect the device’s outputs to the
Monitor Station V2’s rear-panel unbalanced RCA AUX L/R IN jacks.
