4. The Monitor/Meter section

The VU meters, phase
meter, monitor output and
headphone output all
follow the monitor source
selection switch.

The source switch selects
between 2T output (the
stereo mix), 2T playback
(the recorded mix), the
Aux outputs and the PT
Mix (that assumes that the
digital mix output is
assigned to channels #1 &
2).

By having the 2T output next to the 2T playback the user can switch between the
two for A – B comparisons.

There are two separate stereo monitor outputs (enabling the use of two pairs of
amplifiers and speakers) and the “ALT LS” switch toggles between the two
outputs.

A monitor “CUT” switch is also provided and also a “Mono” monitor switch that
puts the entire monitor (Monitor Speakers, Meters and Headphones) into mono
mode. It does not affect the stereo busses, only the monitor path.

The headphone output is independent of the monitor system and does not cut the
monitor outputs when a headphone is connected. As both monitor speakers and
headphones have independent level controls, the user can select the arrangement
best suited to them.

The headphone output socket is capable of driving any impedance from zero ohms
to infinity although impedances of less than around 22 ohms will be progressively
attenuated by the headphone protection resistors.
