2TK TO CTRL ROOM Switch
When you engage this switch, the signal coming in from the 2-
TRACK jacks is routed to the headphones and to the control
room output. This level is controlled by the HDPH / CTRL
ROOM level control and cancels out any signal from the main mix.
AUX RETURN A LEVEL
This is the level control for the signal returning to the mixer via
AUX RETURN A.
EFFECTS / AUX RET B LEVEL
If you are using one of the MultiMix 8 FireWire’s internal effects,
this knob controls the effect level. If AUX SEND B is connected
to an external device, this knob controls the level for AUX
RETURN B.

view the signal level of the main mix and 2-TRACK IN depending
on which signal you have routed to the control room mix.
