MIX / MONITOR METERS
The main meters follow the selected monitor source. The
meter reads ‘0’ for an XLR output of +4dBu. The mixer
should be operated with these meters averaging around ‘0’
with loudest peaks no higher than ‘+6’.
In SPLIT CUE mode, whilst a channel cue button is pressed,
the left meter will display the CUE level and the right meter
will display the PROGRAM (PRG) level. For more about CUE
modes please see “Headphone Setup” on Page 27.

MIX MASTER LEVEL CONTROL
A rotary master control adjusts the level of the main mix XLR
outputs feeding the house sound system. This does not affect
the monitor output or the meter reading.

BOOTH MASTER LEVEL CONTROL
Adjusts the level of the signal to the stereo monitor RCA
output. This does not affect the headphones. The monitor
output could be used for a booth monitor, recording or an
additional zone feed.

CUE / ADD MIX CONTROL
Pans between Cue signal and the Main Mix output. Turned
fully anti-clockwise, only the active Cue signal is heard through

affect the meters. Split Mode pans Left (Cue) to Right (Mix),
