Monitoring Signals
102 VM200 User’s Guide
PFL: In PFL (Pre-Fader Listen) mode, the VM200 feeds a soloed
channel’s pre-fader signal to the Solo buss and then outputs it
only to the MONITOR OUT and PHONES.
Pressing the appropriate [SOLO] key enables you to solo the stereo
master or Rec Buss signal before it is adjusted by the Master
Fader or Rec Buss Gain parameter.
You can use this mode to monitor individual input signals during
a recording session to make isolated EQ adjustments or to ensure
that the signals are not clipping.
You can solo input channels that are turned off (i.e., that have
their
[ON] keys turned off).
M-Solo: In Mix-Solo mode, the VM200 feeds a soloed channel to
the stereo buss, and then outputs it to the ST BUSS OUT, MONI-
TOR OUT, and PHONES. You can solo only channels that are
routed to the Stereo Buss.
The VM200 mutes all channels except the channel you select to
solo. (However, you can use a Solo Safe function in this mode. For
more information, see “Solo Safe Function” on page 104.)
In this mode, Master and Rec Buss [SOLO] keys are disabled.
You can use this mode to adjust individual channels during mix-
down.
5. Rotate the channel 7/8 (EQ/HI) Gain rotary control to select
a Solo Key mode.
6. Press the [CHANNEL/METER] or [EXIT] key.
The VM200 exits Setup mode and displays the CHANNEL EDIT func-
tion page.
