Monitor and Cue
Here we explain how you can use the MONITOR section
to monitor the desired source.
1Make sure that your monitor system is con-
nected to the rear panel MONITOR OUT jacks
L/R/C.
If you want to monitor through headphones, make
sure they are connected to the top panel or front panel
PHONES jack.
Note
•Since the DSP5D does not have monitor functionality, the
PM5D’s MONITOR section will always operate the monitor
settings of machine #1 (PM5D).
•MONITOR OUT jack C is a special jack used to monitor the
center channel when LCR mode is active. Note that the
appropriate signal will not be output from MONITOR OUT
jack C unless the LCR channel is selected as the monitor
source and the USE AS CENTER BUS button is turned on
in the MIXER SETUP screen (SYS/W.CLOCK function)
(
➥
p.222).
•Turning on the [CUE] key of even one input channel, output
channel, or DCA group will override the settings of the MON-
ITOR section and cause the Cue signal to be output from
the MONITOR OUT jacks. Make sure that the CUE section
[INPUT]/[DCA]/[OUTPUT] LEDs are not lit.
2To specify the channel that will be selected by
the [DEFINE] key, press the DISPLAY ACCESS
section [MON/CUE] key repeatedly to access
the MONITOR screen shown below.
3Click a button in the DEFINE area to select the
channel that will be monitored when you
press the [DEFINE] key.
You can assign more than one channel to the
[DEFINE] key. You can choose from the following
sources.
Hint
The MONITOR screen also lets you make settings for monitor
signal delay, insert-out/in, and dimmer (
➥
p.238).
4Use the keys of the MONITOR section to select
the monitor source from the following.
Hint
•You can simultaneously select one from 2TR A1–2TR D3 or
DEFINE, and one from STEREO A/STEREO B (including
LCR) (a maximum of two). To select this from the panel,
simultaneously press the two corresponding keys on the
panel.
•The monitor source can also be selected in the MONITOR
screen (MON/CUE function).
5Press the MONITOR [ON] key to turn it on.
Hint
A signal is always output from the PHONES jacks regardless
of the on/off state of the MONITOR [ON] key.
6Turn the MONITOR [LEVEL] knob to adjust the
monitor level. If you are monitoring through
headphones, turn the PHONES [LEVEL] knob
to adjust the monitor level.
Hint
Monitor level and monitor on/off status can also be operated
from the STEREO/DCA strip section (
➥
p.149).
7If you want to monitor the signal in monaural,
turn the MONITOR section’s [MONO] key on.
MIX 1–MIX 24 Output signals of MIX channels 1–24
MATRIX 1–
MATRIX 8 Output signals of MATRIX buses 1–8
