Master Facilities
Master Meters
The flat screen display above the center section includes meter-
ing for main monitor outputs. The number of meters will match
the monitor’s format (5.1 is shown in the example below).
The 8 meters at the bottom of the screen are for Aux, Group,
Mix outputs or the SLS/Cue monitors, depending on the bus
master knobset selection.
Solo, AFL, PFL
System 5 includes:
• Solo-In-Place (SIP)
• After Pan Listen (APL)
• Pre Fader Listen (PFL)
• Fader Backstop PFL
• Solo Safe - for isolating effects returns
from Solo-In-Place
The solo control knob in the center section allows the level of
APL and PFL to be set and pressing the top of the knob will clear
any solos. There is also a solo active LED.
Solo Options:
• Inter-cancelling, Momentary or Latching Solo switches
• Solo (AFL, PFL) can be sent to either of the two alternate
speaker outputs or can be sent to whichever is the cur-
rently selected speaker
• Solo can dim the monitors
Monitoring
System 5 has five monitor outputs; Control Room (main and two
alternates), and the SLS/Cue outputs Mon A, B, C and D. Each
of the 5 monitor feeds can select from external inputs config-
ured as External Devices, the Mix Sections (Stems) both bus
and playback return, and the aux sends.
The format of the main control room monitors, and Mon A can
handle up to an 8 output surround format. Even the Alt 1 outputs
can handle 6 speakers which is very useful for a second set of
control room speakers when mixing in surround. Group outputs
are usually monitored on the strips but can also be picked up by
the External inputs using PatchNet.

Main Panel
The main panel in the center section is used for making monitor
selections as well as for many other functions including saving
and loading Layouts, Meter Presets and SnapShots. It is very
simple to operate with a straightforward menu structure and
designations which describe functions next to the actual keys.
The External Monitor Selection is shown opposite for selecting
external sources to the Control Room Monitors.
