(20) Left & Right Monitor Outputs
These balanced XLR jacks are line-level analog outputs typically used for connection to
a stereo loudspeaker monitoring system. The signal levels at these outputs are controlled
with the Monitor Level & Mute knob (#12). The Monitor Outputs are DC coupled.
The Monitor Outputs can be configured to use an operating level of +4 dBu (default
value) or -10 dBV. This option is set in the Hardware panel within the Console Settings
window. For details, refer to the
Apollo Software Manual .
The Monitor Outputs are completely independent from the 16 line outputs (except when
ALT monitoring is configured). By default, these outputs are labeled MON L and MON R
in Apollo’s device drivers. In the DAW, the “1–2” or “L–R” or “Main” outputs are routed
to these outputs (these labels vary within each particular DAW).
Tip: The AES/EBU output (#19) can be configured to mirror the Monitor Outputs,
for routing the stereo monitor signal to the stereo AES/EBU input of other devices.
This feature is set with the DIGITAL MIRROR menu in the Hardware panel within
the Console Settings window.
