SM10 Quick Start
SENDING AN INDEPENDENT MIX TO THE MONITOR SPEAKERS
1. Raise the MON controls for the channels that you wish to hear from the
monitor speakers.
NOTE: MON controls are "pre-fader sends," which means they are not affected by
the Volume control level settings of each channel. This allows you to create a mix
for the monitors that is independent of the main left and right mix.
2. Raise the MON SEND control to
adjust the level of the mixed signal
from the channel MON controls until
the desired level is reached at the
rear panel MON Output jack.
3. For added monitoring flexibility, the
front panel MON Output (mono) can
be connected to a powered monitor
speaker. Slowly raise the MON Level
control until the desired level is
reached.
4. The MON mix can be monitored via headphones, by setting the PHONES
SOURCE switch to MON.
NOTE: Listening to high volume levels through headphones for even a short time
may damage your hearing and/or your headphones. Always turn the HEADPHONE
LEVEL control all the way counterclockwise before connecting your headphones.
Slowly raise the HEADPHONE LEVEL until a comfortable listening level is
reached. Noise over 85 dB can cause gradual hearing loss. Learn to establish a
safe listening level.
SM10
The SM10's MON auxiliary send can be
used to feed a separate set of amplifiers and
loudspeakers for stage monitors. This lets
you build one stereo mix for the main mix, or
amplifiers and speakers facing the audience,
and another stereo mix for the amplifiers and
monitor speakers facing the musicians.
