Vi5000/7000 User Manual 10.2: MONITORING SETUP
MONITORING > SETUP
Solo-In-Place Mode
Activate the SOLO-IN-PLACE mode.
This is a destructive mode for use only during sound-checks or rehearsals. When a channel is soloed in SIP mode,
all other channels are muted so that only the soloed channel is heard, in its stereo position, at the console's mix
outputs.
Mute Safe Mode
Enable the Mute Safe (SIP isolation) configuration mode.
If (MUTE SAFE) is active the Mute safe state from the Input channels can be toggled with the Channel's SEL
Key. The state for a given channel is indicated by that channel's Mute Safe LED. NOTE: This configuration mode
is disabled when the setup page is exited. When a channel or bus is set to Mute Safe state, the channel can still
be muted by manual operation of the ON/OFF button, but it is not possible to mute the channel by Mute or VCA
group operation, snapshot automation or Solo-in-Place of another channel.
MON SETUP Mode
Activate the Monitor Setup sub-page.
The Monitor Setup sub-page parameters become available in the VST area of the master screen. See below for
more details.
Auto Cancel Mode
Intelligent auto-cancelling of Solos, depending on Input Priority [INPUT PRI] Mode.
With Input Priority OFF, input and output solos cancel other active solos of any type. With Input Priority ON an
input solo will cancel active input or VCA solos and temporarily override active output solos, and pressing another
output solo will cancel other active output solos.
Autocancelling can be overridden by holding down an input or output solo and pressing other solos of the same
type. See Section 11 for more detail on Input Priority,
LCR Source Select
Select the mix master output sources for the monitor outputs A, B, and HP
For the Monitor A (LCR) output you can choose LCR and/or C; for the Monitor B and Headphone outputs you can
choose LR and/or C. This selection cannot be combined with the User A or User B sources, but solo and talkback
options are concurrent.
User A / B Source Select
Select the user-defined output source for the monitor outputs A, B and HP.
Choose EITHER User A or User B as a main source for the monitoring output. This selection cannot be combined
with the LCR, LR, or C sources, but solo and talkback options are concurrent. Each of the monitoring outputs has
its own individual USER A / B assignment. User A and B are useful in stage monitoring applications to allow a
favourite output bus to be the default monitoring source when no solos are active.
