Monitor section
The monitoring facilities in SiX are very comprehensive given the size of the console. The block diagram below shows the structure
of the Main Monitor, Alternate Monitor and Headphone outputs.
MAIN and ALT monitor outputs
The monitor section has two sets of balanced outputs for loudspeakers labelled MAIN MON
and ALT MON (See rear connector layout below). By default, the MAIN MON output is used.
Pressing the ALT key on the front panel switches the Monitor feed to the ALT MON output.
Both Main and Alt outputs use balanced ¼” jack Sockets on the rear connector panel.
In addition to the ¼” jack outputs there is also a parallel of the pre-switched Monitor
Output on the 25 way OUT/SEND D-type connector on the rear panel (pre Main/Alt Switch).
Connection details are in the Connectors section later in the document.
The Monitor outputs are Off when the Monitor Level is fully anti-clockwise (0) and at unity
when fully clockwise (11).
Below the Monitor Level control are buttons for DIM and CUT. The CUT button mutes all of the monitor outputs. The DIM button
lowers the monitor output level as controlled by the DIM level knob in the Monitor Source section (see next page).
