2 Getting Started
2.1 Quick Start Guide
The Monitor Station V2 Quick Start Guide will help get your Monitor
Station V2 integrated with your system as quickly as possible. These
step-by-step instructions are based on a typical studio environment;
your setup will depend on your needs and applications.
Note: Throughout this chapter, we’ll refer to turning a knob all the way down as
“zeroing” the knob, since for practical purposes, the knob will be set to “0.”
2.1.1 Connecting the Monitor Station V2’s Power
WARNING: Before connecting the Monitor Station V2’s included power
supply, make sure that the power supply meets the input-voltage
requirements of the region or country in which you’re using it. PreSonus supports
only the power supply shipped with your Monitor Station V2. If the power supply
doesn’t meet your local requirements, or if you wish to purchase an additional power
supply, please contact your local dealer or distributor.
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.
Note: If you have speakers or other gear connected to the Main L/R Line Outputs, you
should also zero their own output controls.
2. Make sure the Monitor Station V2’s rear-panel Power switch is turned o by
pressing the “0” at the bottom of the switch.
3. Connect the included power supply to the appropriate wall socket and then to the
Monitor Station V2’s rear-panel power input.
4. Turn on the Monitor Station V2’s power by pressing the “|” symbol at the top of the
Power switch.
