Audio Production System with Optional Networking
MONITORING
CONNECTING MONITORS
Audio I/O is available on the back of the Brio 36 surface for processing, therefore, loudspeakers may be connected
to the system from console outputs or Hydra2 I/O ports and patched from Brio’s various monitor outputs.
All Brio’s monitor outputs are available as sources within the I/O patching screen from where they can be patched to I/O
output ports either built-in or via Hydra 2 I/O ports and then connected to loudspeakers.
Once loudspeakers have been connected and correctly patched, monitoring control is achieved from the surface monitor
controls, as described in
“CONTROL SURFACE SECTIONS” on page 23 , or by using the monitor bar at the bottom of
the touch display. The figures below show an example of how loudspeakers can be connected and arranged along with
an image showing how the I/O patching screen should look for this loudspeaker setup.

MONITORING PATCHING EXAMPLE
Note: patching monitors to output ports as fixed connections (using Connect & Fix), means they will be the same
regardless of the user memory loaded.
