PROFXV3+ MULTI-CHANNEL ANALOG MIXERS WITH ENHANCED FX, USB RECORDING MODES, AND BLUETOOTH®
1/4" Headphone Output Jack
This 1/4" TRS connector supplies the output to stereo headphones. The volume is controlled via the phones knob.
Whenever a solo switch is engaged, you will only hear the soloed channel(s) in the headphones.
This gives you the opportunity to audition the channels before they are added to the main mix.
(Solo signals reaching the headphones are not affected by the channel level or main level,
therefore turn down the phones level first, as soloed channels may be loud.)
The phones output follows standard conventions:
Tip = Left channel
Ring = Right channel
Sleeve = Ground
WARNING: The headphone amp is loud and can cause permanent hearing damage. Even intermediate levels
may be painfully loud with some headphones. BE CAREFUL! Always turn the phones level control all the way
down before connecting headphones or pressing a solo switch, or doing anything new that may affect
the headphone volume. Then turn it up slowly as you listen carefully.
The signal leaving the phones jack may also accept a post-blend mix of the inputs and USB return
if the "To Phones / Control Room" switch is engaged. More information about this switch
(and the "Blend" knob) may be found on pages 30-31.
1/4" Control Room Jacks [ProFX10v3+ and ProFX12v3+]
When a channel's solo switch is engaged, any existing selection is replaced by the solo signal, appearing
at the control room outputs, phones and at the left meter. The audible solo levels are then controlled
by the control room knob. The solo levels appearing on the meters are not controlled by the control room
knob – you would not want that, anyway. What you do want to see is the actual channel level on the meters
regardless of how loud the control room output level might be.
The signal leaving the CR outs may also accept a post-blend mix of the inputs and USB return if the "To Phones /
Control Room" switch is engaged. More information about this switch (and the "Blend" knob) may be found
on pages 30-31. Because there are no control room outputs on the ProFX6v3+, there is a "To Phones" only switch.

These 1/4" jacks are usually patched to the inputs of a control room amplifier or a headphone distribution
amplifier.
The control room outputs may also be used for other applications. The sound quality is just as impeccable
as the main outputs. It may be used as an additional main mix output and this one will have its own level
control. However, be aware that if a solo switch is engaged, the mix will be interrupted:
