downmixed to 2 channels.
Headphone (Direct) Outputs the analog signals without processing by the tone, sound field, etc.
Headphone (Multi) This mode is selected automatically if you use headphones when the multi-
channel input is selected. Outputs the front analog signals from the MULTI
CHANNEL INPUT jacks.
