M MONITOR SELECT (L andR) buttons
These buttons are used to select the audio signals
which are to be output to the MONITOR L and R
connectors.
Each time the L button is pressed, the signal to be
output to the MONITOR L connector is changed in the
following sequence: CH1 5 CH2 5 CUE.
Similarly, each time the R button is pressed, the signal
to be output to the MONITOR R connector is changed
in the following sequence: CH1 5 CH2 5 CUE.
Which signal has now been selected is displayed by
the lighting of the L or R lamps on the level meter
display.
When AUTO has been selected as the setup menu

switched in tandem with the monitor output. The
channel to which monitor output is to be switched
automatically can be selected using setup menu No.

This button is used to select the mixed signals which
are to be output to the MONITOR L and R connectors.
Each time the MONITOR SELECT L button is pressed
while this button is held down, the signals to be output

sequence: CH1 + CH2 5 mixing release.
The mixed signals to be output to the MONITOR R
connector are changed in the same way by the

O Headphone jack and volume control
When stereo headphones are connected to the
headphone jack, the sound during recording, playback
or editing can be monitored using the headphones.
The volume level of the headphone output and
monitor output can be adjusted using the volume
control.
Whether the volume level of the monitor output is to
be coupled to the volume control or not can be
selected using the setup menu item No. 713 (MONI
OUT). (Note that the volume level of the headphones
is coupled at all times.)
When the volume of the monitor output is not coupled,
it is fixed at a set level and is not affected by the
position of the volume control.
