Monitor and Cue

Here we explain how you can use the MONITOR section
to monitor the desired source.

1

Make sure that your monitor system is con-
nected to the rear panel MONITOR OUT jacks
L/R/C.
If you want to monitor through headphones, make
sure they are connected to the top panel or front panel
PHONES jack.

Note

• Since the DSP5D does not have monitor functionality, the

PM5D’s MONITOR section will always operate the monitor
settings of machine #1 (PM5D).

• MONITOR OUT jack C is a special jack used to monitor the

center channel when LCR mode is active. Note that the
appropriate signal will not be output from MONITOR OUT
jack C unless the LCR channel is selected as the monitor
source and the USE AS CENTER BUS button is turned on
in the MIXER SETUP screen (SYS/W.CLOCK function)
(

p.222).

• Turning on the [CUE] key of even one input channel, output

channel, or DCA group will override the settings of the MON-
ITOR section and cause the Cue signal to be output from
the MONITOR OUT jacks. Make sure that the CUE section
[INPUT]/[DCA]/[OUTPUT] LEDs are not lit.

2

To specify the channel that will be selected by
the [DEFINE] key, press the DISPLAY ACCESS
section [MON/CUE] key repeatedly to access
the MONITOR screen shown below.

3

Click a button in the DEFINE area to select the
channel that will be monitored when you
press the [DEFINE] key.
You can assign more than one channel to the
[DEFINE] key. You can choose from the following
sources.

Hint

The MONITOR screen also lets you make settings for monitor
signal delay, insert-out/in, and dimmer (

p.238).

4

Use the keys of the MONITOR section to select
the monitor source from the following.

Hint

• You can simultaneously select one from 2TR A1–2TR D3 or

DEFINE, and one from STEREO A/STEREO B (including
LCR) (a maximum of two). To select this from the panel,
simultaneously press the two corresponding keys on the
panel.

• The monitor source can also be selected in the MONITOR

screen (MON/CUE function).

5

Press the MONITOR [ON] key to turn it on.

Hint

A signal is always output from the PHONES jacks regardless
of the on/off state of the MONITOR [ON] key.

6

Turn the MONITOR [LEVEL] knob to adjust the
monitor level. If you are monitoring through
headphones, turn the PHONES [LEVEL] knob
to adjust the monitor level.

Hint

Monitor level and monitor on/off status can also be operated
from the STEREO/DCA strip section (

p.149).

7

If you want to monitor the signal in monaural,
turn the MONITOR section’s [MONO] key on.
