Meter Color Schemes
The Bright and Black & White settings were designed for using the Deva in full sunlight. Both allow you to
see and use the Deva screen when viewing conditions are less than ideal.
Headphone Monitoring
One of the strengths of the Deva is the flexibility in routing, which is evident in the input, output, and
recording options. This flexibility is extended to the headphone monitoring area as well. Many common
headphone monitoring options come preset from Zaxcom. You can add up to 12 custom presets in
addition to the factory presets. You can also simply build a headphone monitoring configuration on-the-fly
without saving it, as well as temporarily monitor a single channel. The headphone audio you are listening to
what is being placed onto the hard drive. Check-Sum Error Correction ensures that what is being sent to
the internal hard drive is being recorded there.

Both of these bring you immediately to the Headphone Mix menu, as long as fader number 8 is not assigned
