Slave Out
The balanced 1/4 inch Slave Out jacks provide for summed output of all active
2Tr inputs (Mix, 2Tr A to 2Tr D). As an example, the monitor signal may also be
routed to a recording medium, or, while one listens to a CD player, the output
may simultaneously be routed to a DAW. You may likewise connect stereo
metering equipment.
The musician’s signal (coming from the Musician input) is not routed to the
Slave Out, as it is only used for latency-free monitoring, but not for recording.
Talk Out
The Talk Out connection routes just the isolated Talkback mic signal through
its balanced 1/4 inch jack to create an alternative listening option (for example,
to another room).
This function is particularly useful when, for instance, the engineer wishes
to avoid forcing all performers in the recording room to wear headphones.
For example advertising narrators are not often happy wearing headphones.
Routing through the Talk Out circuit, the engineer can communicate directly
to narrators or musicians over an active monitor placed in the recording room.
The Talk Out signal volume is regulated with the Talk Level control (please see
Operation/Control Functions/Talkback Level on page 12).
Cue Mix
This Cue Mix output provides a monitor mix for musicians.
You can connect a headphone amplifier to these balanced 1/4 inch plugs.
Speaker 1-3
Speaker outputs 1 to 3 provide for the stereo out signal. A loudspeaker pair
may be connected to each pair of balanced XLR connectors.
