1.2 FEATURES

The Monitor Station is the ultimate studio control center complete with everything needed for real-world,
modern studio applications. The Monitor Station comes complete with a built-in talkback mic, three source
inputs, three speaker outputs, four headphone amplifiers and control over the routing and level of every element
connected to the Monitor Station – effectively giving you complete control over your entire studio environment.

Its stereo inputs are ready to accommodate virtually any input sources – such as Digital Audio Workstations
(DAWs), analogue and digital mixing consoles, CD players, DJ Turntables, etc. Each of the five inputs features
individual monitoring, which means you can quickly and easily toggle between them for a quick comparison or
reference. The Monitor Station’s three stereo outputs with individual Speaker Level Adjust knobs and Master
Mute, Dim, Mono and Level controls allow you to connect three sets of reference monitors and easily compare
your mix on each of them. The four headphone amplifier outputs with individual source and level controls give
you the ability to feed custom headphone mixes to you or any of the artists in your studio. All this combined
with the built-in talkback microphone make the Monitor Station the cleanest, most powerful piece of gear
custom-tailored to bring your studio together under your complete control.
