Rane MP 2016a - Manual (Page 3)

Manual-
HEADPHONE MONITOR
MONITOR determines the source of the PHONES signal.
With the MONITOR MONO switch out, the control pans
between stereo CUE and stereo PGM signals. The PGM signal
follows the HOUSE Output (same signal going to the Master
House).
With MONITOR MONO selected (in), the MONITOR
control pans between mono CUE (left ear) and mono PGM
(right ear).
The Phones LEVEL control determines the headphone out-
put level. If you are mixing with the MIX LEVEL controls below
“7”, be sure to turn the Phones LEVEL down before selecting a
CUE source as it may be much louder than the Master Mix.
The PHONES output is very low impedance and high
current so do not short tip and ring together or tie to ground, as
is common with many low- cost mono cups. Use resistors of
300 to 600 Ω in series with each output for mono applications,
although this significantly reduces output power.
BOOTH CUE / MASTER switch and Level
The BOOTH CUE / MASTER switch selects MASTER
mix or CUE selection as the Booth source. This allows CUE
monitoring in the Booth without headphones. The BOOTH
Level controls the volume to the Booth Output.
MASTER HOUSE Level
This studio-grade control sets the HOUSE Output level.
MASTER MONO / STEREO switch
This sets the MASTER mix signal to MONO or STEREO
operation. It effects both BOOTH and HOUSE Outputs.
MASTER SIG / OL indicator
This dual color indicator helps set correct MASTER mix
levels. A flashing or steady green indication is optimal. The red
indicator may flash only briefly on rare occasion...regular flash-
ing or steady-on means that distortion is imminent and Levels
need reducing.
XP 2016a switch
This engages the optional XP 2016a External Processor. If
the XP 2016a is not connected, the switch does nothing. If an
XP 2016a is connected and the switch is on (up), it routes the
MIX LEVEL Outputs to the XP 2016a and returns a stereo
MASTER signal to the MP 2016a.
EFFECTS LOOP switch
This engages the EFFECTS LOOP when up. If nothing is
connected to the EFFECTS LOOP RETURN, the switch has
no effect.
TREBLE tone control
Allows adjusting the amplitude of frequencies above 4 kHz
from +6 dB to OFF (full kill).
MID tone control
Allows adjusting the amplitude of frequencies between 300
Hz and 4 kHz from +6 dB to OFF (full kill).
BASS tone control
Allows adjusting the amplitude of frequencies below
300 Hz from +6 dB to OFF (full kill).
POWER indicator
This yellow indicator lights whenever AC power is connected
to the unit.
