HEADPHONE MONITOR

This section of the mixer features all the headphone monitoring controls which, again, come under the control of the DSP. This allows
the inclusion of a special cue EQ control which filters-out unwanted frequencies, letting you tune-in to defined elements within the
sound and create a perfect mix.

LEVEL

This control adjusts the output level to the connected headphones. At the fully anti-clockwise position there will be no sound. As the
control is moved in a clockwise direction the output level will be gradually increased until, at the fully clockwise position, the output
level will be at its maximum.

MASTER/CUE SELECT

This switch selects the monitor signal source. When the switch is at [MASTER], the monitor output sound will be derived from the
master output bus. When the switch is at [CUE], the monitored sound will be derived from the [XF MONITOR].

Note: when this switch is set to [MASTER], the headphones will be post-eq; when it is set to [CUE], the headphones will be pre-eq.

EQ

This control adjusts the tone of the monitored sound, cutting the highs or lows about the centre off position. At the 12 o’clock centre
position the EQ will be flat (no cut). As the control is moved clockwise the HIGHER frequencies will be progressively cut until, at the
fully clockwise position the maximum high frequency cut will be applied (-85dB). As the control is moved anti-clockwise from the
centre position the LOWER frequencies will be progressively cut until, at the fully anti-clockwise position the maximum low frequency
cut will be applied (-85dB). NOTE: fully clockwise=dark, fully anti-clockwise=bright.
