and surround stems can be selected, as well as up to 16 externals and 3 surround
externals.
The selected source type is shown on the 16 key monitor selector keys above to
show the available sources of that type, together with their individual label ID to feed
the monitor. The PFL key enables PFL sources via the fader bed PFL key to be
monitored in the control room.
The sum key allows a monitor mix to be created for surround applications. The stem
selects the stems for surround monitoring.

Control Room Volume
The large red rotary knob controls the monitoring level.
The alpha displays the current monitoring level.
This will need setting up in the first instance with reference to the amplifiers in the
control room. The red level knob should be set to 85dB and the amplifiers trimmed
with the use of an SPL meter to obtain the correct monitoring gain.
LS Cuts
The LS Cuts can either be individually muted or all the LS Cuts can be muted using
the main CUT key.
The LS Solo inverts the operation allowing the speaker selection to be soloed.
