Monitor/Cue
This chapter explains the LS9’s monitor/cue functions.
The Monitor function lets you audition various signals through your nearfield monitors or head-
phones. The LS9’s front panel has a PHONES OUT jack for monitoring, and this jack always lets
you monitor the signal that is selected as the monitoring source. By assigning the MONITOR
OUT L/R/C channels to the desired output jacks, you can also monitor the same signal through
external speakers. You can select the following signals as the monitor source.
The Cue function lets you check an individual selected channel by temporarily sending it from the
output jacks assigned to the MONITOR OUT channel or from the PHONES OUT jack. When you
press the top panel [CUE] key, the cue signal of the corresponding channel is sent as the monitor
output from the selected output port.
The following diagram shows the monitor/cue signal flow.
● MONITOR SELECT
Selects the monitor source.
● METER
Detects and indicates the level of the monitor signal or cue
signal.
● DIMMER
Attenuates the monitor/cue signal by a fixed amount.
● MONITOR LEVEL
Adjusts the level of the monitor/cue signal. This affects
the output jacks that are assigned to the MONITOR OUT
L/R/C channels, and also the PHONES OUT jack.
● ON (On/off)
Turns the monitor output on/off.
● PHONES LEVEL (Headphone level)
Adjusts the output level of only the PHONES OUT jack.
About the monitor/cue functions
• STEREO channel output signal
• MONO channel output signal
• STEREO + MONO channel output signal
• 2TR IN DIGITAL jack input signal
• INPUT channels 15/16 {31/32} input signal
• USB memory recorder output signal
• Any combination of up to eight signals from the STE-
REO, MONO, MIX, and MATRIX channels, the USB
memory recorder output signal, INPUT channel 15/
16 {31/32}, and the 2TR IN DIGITAL jack input signal
• The cue signal is sent to the same output destination as the monitor signal. Be aware that for this reason,
the cue signal will no longer be sent to the connected monitor speakers if you turn off the Monitor output.
However, the cue signal will always be sent to the PHONES OUT jack.
