Surround Monitoring
About Surround Monitoring
The DM1000 features comprehensive surround monitoring functions that enable you to
monitor, in the optimum environment, the surround sources in the Buses or those input
from Slot 1 or 2. These functions include down mixing (which enables you to monitor sig-
nals on fewer channels) and fine-tuning of surround channel signals according to the mon-
itoring environment.
The surround monitoring functions also feature an oscillator for testing speakers, a mon-
itoring matrix for down mixing, Bass Management for optimizing channel signals for the
monitoring environment, and monitor alignment using individual Attenuator and Delay
parameters for each speaker.
To monitor the Surround Monitor signal via the surround system, you must connect
the system to the output connectors on the DM1000, then patch the Surround Monitor
signal source to these connectors.
For example, if the surround system is connected to the OMNI OUT connector, press the
[OUTPUT PATCH] button repeatedly until the Out Patch | OMNI Out page appears. This
page will enable you to patch the surround channel (indicated as “SURR XXX” where
“XXX” is the channel name) to the corresponding OMNI OUT connector.
