When mixing in the M-S domain (and) using M-S microphones, M-channels will be
panned left, S-channels will be panned right and spot microphones will be panned
left to mix with the M-channels only. With CH (1) selected on the monitor module,
MON on an M-channel will audition the microphone on monitor 1 left but use of
MONO (14) will place the signal on both outputs of monitor 1.
Similarly, MON on an
S-channel will audition that microphone on monitor 1 right. If MON is selected on
BOTH channels of an M-S microphone, the resultant signal (M-S) on monitor 1 will be
incomprehensible and must be matrixed to the L-R domain by DEC (13).
An M-S main output A/B (4) or C/D (7) may be monitored in the L-R domain by
selecting DEC (13).
An M-S main mix may be matrixed to the L-R domain for the final output from the
mixer by DEC (4) for A/B and DEC (19) for C/D on the output module.
Signals for output monitoring are taken from the final outputs of the
mixer, ie after the faders and output-matrix amplifiers.
Monitor 1 left and right outputs may be mixed to mono by selecting MONO (14) - an
LED indicates when this function is in use. The mono signal is fed to both sides of
monitor 1 output.
When mixing in the L-R domain without M-S microphones, X-Y (A-B) microphones will
be panned hard left (X) and hard right (Y), and any spot microphone will be panned to
its correct position in the final L-R image.
CH (1) on the monitor module and MON selected on both channels of an X-Y pair
auditions each stereo microphone.
MON on a spot microphone is solo-in-place
usage of the monitor system.
