| Monitoring |
|
System 5 has five monitor outputs; Control Room (main and
two alternates), and the SLS/Cue outputs Mon A, B, C and
D. Each of the 5 monitor feeds can select from external inputs
configured as External Devices, the Mix Sections (Stems)
both bus and playback return, and the aux sends. |
The format of the main control room monitors,
and Mon A can handle up to an 8 output surround format. Even
the Alt 1 outputs can handle 6 speakers which is very useful
for a second set of control room speakers when mixing in surround.
Group outputs are usually monitored on the strips but can also
be picked up by the External inputs using PatchNet. |

Main Panel
The main panel in the center section is used for making monitor
selections as well as for many other functions including
saving and loading Layouts, Meter Presets and SnapShots.
It is very simple to operate with a straightforward menu
structure and designations which describe functions next
to the actual keys. The External Monitor Selection is shown
opposite for selecting external sources to the Control Room
Monitors. |
External Inputs
Up to 32 devices may be configured for External sources
in any surround format up to 7.1. The monitor matrix is
intelligent and automatically selects the appropriate monitor
format to match the source’s format.
