A rough mix can be made from the channels to the stereo output so that the user
can listen to the signals going to the workstation and send a stereo cue
headphone signal to the performer.

For mixing, the TRACK buttons are de-selected and the workstation can now
mix down through the GTM channel paths, as relays would have switched the
mic pre-amplifiers away from the channel inputs.

If one or more add-on units are used, each has their own TRACKING mode
switches so that any number of channels can be selected to MIXING or
TRACKING.

All the meters and monitor/headphone outputs follow the monitor source
selector switch so that, for instance, the switch can be flicked between stereo
output and stereo playback for comparison purposes.

If the Aux send paths are used for Cue headphone purposes, the Stereo Effects
return can be used as Channel inputs 9 and 10 to the stereo bus.

If, for instance, a colleague brings a CD or MP3 player and wishes to hear it
though the studio monitor loudspeakers, the device can be plugged into the
Stereo Playback inputs and the monitor source switch moved to the center
position… thus not disturbing any of the channel path settings.

It is highly recommended to use a patch panel with the GTM822 as shown in the
illustration on page #14. This way, there is no need to reach behind the unit to
access the rear panel connectors and the patch panel will enable easy insertion of
studio outboard equipment into any of the channel and bus insertion paths.

Typical access points are :-

Channel I/P, O/P and pre-fade insertion send and return (each 1 – 8)
2T O/P and pre-fade insertion send and return (each L & R)
Aux/Cue O/P's (1 & 2)
Stereo Effects Return or Ch 9 & 10 (L & R)
Stereo Playback I/P (L & R)
Monitor LS O/P #1 (L & R)
Monitor LS O/P #2 (L & R)
Digital Editing System I/P's (1 – 8)
Digital Editing System O/P's (1 – 8)
