18. Solo to Monitor Switch

Connections to the balanced program feed jacks should be made with
a 1/4" stereo tip, ring and sleeve (TRS) plug as shown below in
figure 12 .










When connecting the balanced program outputs to an unbalanced input,
it will be necessary to configure your cables in order to unbalance the
signal.


This pushbutton switch introduces the Solo function, Cue, and Aux
Returns to the master monitor outputs as well as the headphone outputs.

In the normal position (off), the Solo, Cue, and Aux are removed, and
only the stereo mix is present at the monitor feed. When this switch is
depressed (on), both the monitor and headphone feeds receive the Solo
signal, Cue, and Aux Returns together with the stereo mix. The
operation of this switch does not affect the program feed.

This switch selects the source for the monitor and headphone outputs. In
the Pre position, the source for the monitor and headphones are before
(Pre) the Program Master Control. When set to this position any
adjustment to the Program Master Control will have no direct affect on
the monitor or headphone output levels. In the Post position, the source
for the monitor channel is after (Post) the Program Master Control. This
permits the monitor and headphone level controls to follow any
adjustment made by the Program Master Level Control.

For applications where the Xtramix is being used as a self contained
recording mixer, it may be desirable to set this switch to the "post"
position. In which case, whenever the program maser control on the
front panel is used to fade out music to the Stereo mixdown recorder, the
fadeout will automatically be adjusted to the monitor outputs and
headphone outputs. This is how most recording consoles operate.

For applications where the Xtramix is used more like a conventional
keyboard mixer, it may be desirable to set this switch to the "pre"
position.
