gram material which has sustained lower fre-
quencies below 120hz. This in no way affects
the material that is being recorded or mixed,
and is only in the monitor circuit.
Stereo Mode
In Stereo mode, the ALT switch routes the Con-
trol Room Monitor mix to the ALT outputs.
Pressing the ALT switch disables the feed to
Main Monitor Out.
When the ALT switch is pressed while in Stereo
monitor mode, the ALT MONITOR rotary con-
trol adjusts the level of the ALT Stereo Control
Room Monitor output.
The ALT outputs are often used for a pair of
near-field speakers, but can be routed to any ste-
reo monitoring system.
Surround Modes
When ALT Monitor is selected in Surround
Monitor modes, the left and right paths are
routed to the ALT stereo output, and adjusted
with the ALT MONITOR rotary control.
In Stereo mode, the ALT switch routes the Con-
trol Room Monitor mix to ALT Monitor Out.
This will typically be connected to an alternate
set of monitoring speakers. Pressing the ALT
switch disables the feed to Main Monitor Out.
In Surround mode, Left and Right only are
routed to the ALT outputs.

Solo and Mute Controls

The global Mute/Solo Buttons (LEFT, CENTER,
RIGHT, LS, RS, AND SUB) in the Control Room
Monitor section solo the individual stems of a
Surround mix when the MUTE NOT SOLO but-
ton is not lit.
When the MUTE NOT SOLO button is lit, the
same buttons mute their respective stems in a
Surround mix.
The MUTE ALL switch acts as a Control Room
Monitor master mute. The MUTE switch does
not affect the Headphone signal (front-panel
1/4" connector), but mutes all other sources cur-
rently selected in the Control Room Monitor
section.

MONO Switch

The MONO switch sums all elements of the
Control Room Monitor mix in mono. This is a
good way to check phase and balance relation-
ships of a mix, and is active in both Stereo and
Surround monitor modes.
The MONO switch does not affect the head-
phones, Slate, or Aux outputs.
