Pan And Balance

For channels 1–6, use the

PAN

knob to set the left-right

stereo position of the channel signal sent to the stereo and
SUB busses.

For stereo channels 7-8 and 9-10, use the

BAL

knob to set

the left-right balance of the stereo channel signals sent to
the stereo and SUB busses.

Stereo channels 11-12, 13-14 and 15-16 do not have left-
right balance control.

Bus assignments

Using the

ST

and

SUB

switches, the outputs of channels

1–16 can be sent to the stereo and SUB busses.

Turn both ST and SUB switches OFF to cut (mute) the
output of a channel easily.

Monitoring with headphones

You can monitor the outputs of the mixer’s stereo, SUB or
AUX 1 send bus.

1 Connect stereo headphones to the

PHONES

jack on

the top panel of the mixer.

2 Raise the

PHONES

knob level slightly.

3 Use the two switches in the

MONITOR

section to set

whether the stereo, SUB or AUX 1 send bus is moni-
tored.

Push in the upper switch to monitor the stereo bus sig-

nal. (The status of the bottom switch has not effect.)

Without pushing in the upper switch, push in the lower

switch to monitor the SUB bus.

Do not push in either the upper or lower switch to moni-

tor the AUX 1 send bus.

Using AUX 1 for a monitoring mix

By using the AUX 1 bus to output a pre-fader signal mix,
you can use this for stage and cue monitoring setups, as
explained in “AUX sends” in “Using the mixer channel
functions.”

Pre-fader signal levels can be sent to the AUX 1 bus for
channels 1–6, 7-8 and 9-10.

The TO AUX 1 switches on channels 13-14 on all M-164
mixers, as well as on channels 15-16 on M-164FX and
M-164UF mixers and channels 11-12 on M-164UF, can be
used to send post-fader signals to the AUX 1 bus. Pre-
fader signals cannot be sent from these channels.

Connect an amplification or speaker system to the

AUX

SEND 1

jack or connect headphones to the mixer in

advance, to allow monitoring of AUX 1. (See “Monitoring
with headphones” on page 21.)
