11 Monitor and Cue
104 PM5D/PM5D-RH V2 / DSP5D Owner’s Manual Operating section
This section explains how you can use the [CUE] key of a
desired channel or DCA group to monitor the Cue signal.
Note
If you want the cue/solo signal to be output from the MONI-
TOR OUT jacks as well, access the MONITOR screen (MON/
CUE function) and make sure that the CUE INTERRUPTION
ON/OFF button is on before you continue with the following
procedure (
➥
p.239).
1Using the [OUTPUT PFL] key of the CUE sec-
tion, select one of the following as the output
position of the signal sent to the CUE bus
when an output channel [CUE] key is pressed.
• PFL ([OUTPUT PFL] key is on)
The signal from immediately before the fader will be
sent to the CUE bus.
• POST ON ([OUTPUT PFL] key is off)
The signal from immediately after the [ON] key will be
sent to the CUE bus.
Hint
The above setting can also be made in the CUE screen
(MON/CUE function) (
➥
p.240). In this screen you can also
specify the output position of the signal sent from input chan-
nels and DCA groups to the CUE bus.
2In the CUE section, use the [LAST CUE] key to
specify the mode of operation when more
than one [CUE] key within the same group is
turned on.
• LAST CUE mode ([LAST CUE] key is on)
Only the channel/group whose [CUE] key was last
turned on will be monitored.
• MIX CUE mode ([LAST CUE] key is off)
Channels/groups within the same group whose [CUE]
key is turned on will be monitored.
Note
•[CUE] keys belonging to different groups cannot be turned
on simultaneously. The group to which the last-pressed
[CUE] key belongs will be turned on, allowing the signals of
that group to be monitored.
•If you press the [CUE] key of a paired channel, both chan-
nels will be turned on.
3Make sure that the [SOLO] key in the CUE sec-
tion is turned off.
4Press the [CUE] key of a desired channel or
DCA group to turn it on.
The cue signal of the corresponding channel will be
output from the CUE OUT jacks and the MONITOR
OUT jacks.
5To defeat Cue, press the currently-on [CUE]
key once again.
Hint
If you press the [LAST CUE] key to switch from LAST CUE
mode to MIX CUE mode (or vice versa), all previously-
enabled Cue (Solo) signals will be defeated. For example if
you have turned on multiple [CUE] keys in MIX CUE mode,
you can quickly turn them all off by pressing the [LAST CUE]
key twice.
This section explains how to use the Solo function.
1Use the [LAST CUE] key of the CUE section to
specify the mode of operation when a [CUE]
key is turned on (LAST CUE mode or MIX CUE
mode).
2In the CUE section, press and hold the [SOLO]
key.
When you press and hold the [SOLO] key, the key LED
will blink and SOLO mode will be enabled. In SOLO
mode, only the signal of the channel or DCA group
whose [CUE] key is turned on will be sent to the MIX,
MATRIX, and STEREO buses. The same signal can
also be monitored from the MONITOR OUT jacks and
CUE OUT jacks.
Hint
If desired, you can exclude specific channels or groups from
Solo operations (for details, refer to
➥
p.241).
3Turn on the [CUE] key of a desired channel or
DCA group.
Only the corresponding channel or DCA group will be
output to the buses and output jacks; the remaining
channels and DCA groups will be muted. The same sig-
nal will also be output from the CUE OUT jacks and
the MONITOR OUT jacks.
Note
If you turn on the [CUE] key of an output channel, the signal
will be sent only to the corresponding bus.
4To defeat Solo, press the [SOLO] key.
If you press the [SOLO] key while in SOLO mode, you
will immediately return to CUE mode.
Hint
Normally, the Cue/Solo functions can be operated indepen-
dently of scene memories.
