16 M2500—Owner’s Manual
Stereo/monaural master section
This section controls the signals that are output from
the rear panel ST OUT L/R and MONO/C OUT jacks
(page 28).

STEREO section

AMATRIX switch

If this switch is on ( ), the post-fader ST OUT L/R
signal will be sent to the matrix (page 18).
BON/EDIT switch / ON, CHECK indicators
The function of this switch and these indicators will
change depending on the mode of the M2500.
● In normal mode
You can use the ON/EDIT switch to turn ST OUT L/
R on/off. When this is switched on/off, the ON indi-
cator will be lit/dark to indicate the status. Channels
that are switched off will not send any signals to the
ST OUT L/R jacks or to the matrix.
● In check mode
When a scene (which contains the on/off state of the
ON/EDIT switches) is selected, the on/off status
memorized in that scene will be indicated by the lit/
dark status of the CHECK indicator. In check mode,
you can also use the ON/EDIT switch to switch the
CHECK indicator between lit/dark. (The current on/
off setting will not be affected.) For details on check
mode, refer to page 32.
CFader
This adjusts the ST OUT L/R output level.
DAFL switch
Using this switch, the signal sent to the ST OUT L/R
jacks can be monitored from the MONITOR OUT/
PHONES jacks. If the PFL switches of all input chan-
nels are off, turning this AFL switch on (the indicator
above the switch will light) will allow you to monitor
the output signal of the STEREO section from the
MONITOR OUT/PHONES jacks. Use the MASTER
PFL switch of the monitor section to switch the mon-
itor signal between pre/post-fader.

MONO/C section

EMATRIX switch
If this switch is on ( ), the post-fader MONO/C sig-
nal will be sent to the matrix (page 18).
FON/EDIT switch / ON, CHECK indicators
The function of this switch and these indicators will
change depending on the mode of the M2500.
● In normal mode
You can use the ON/EDIT switch to turn MONO/C
OUT on/off. When this is switched on/off, the ON
indicator will be lit/dark to indicate the status. Chan-
nels that are switched off will not send any signals to
the MONO/C jack or to the matrix.
● In check mode
When a scene (which contains the on/off state of the
ON/EDIT switches) is selected, the on/off status
memorized in that scene will be indicated by the lit/
dark status of the CHECK indicator. In check mode,
you can also use the ON/EDIT switch to switch the
CHECK indicator between lit/dark. (The current on/
off setting will not be affected.) For details on check
mode, refer to page 32.
