Aux 9/10 and 11/12 are perfect for stereo headphone sends. It’s often convenient for the musicians to, at first, monitor the L/R mix in the cue section (CUE 1 and 2). Once the initial L/R mix is estab- lished, copy it to the appropriate cue (PHONES SETUP > Copy Mix to Cue), then customize for individual monitoring needs.

❏Adjust headphone monitor volume in the PHONES section.

The mix should be arriving at the mixdown re- corder. It’s good to check this as part of your tracking process. At the conclusion of a session the artist will probably want to take a rough mix for evaluation —you’ll look better if it’s already set to go.

❏Record a pass on the multitrack

Play multitrack back—playback should sound identical to tracking and you’re ready to print a rough mix.
