Control|24 Guide 20
Headphones
Control|24 provides a stereo headphone jack in
the Control Room Monitor section, with sepa-
rate level control. The headphone jack provides
a discrete feed of the main stereo Control|24
mix. The Headphone output does not follow
Control Room Mono, Mute or Dim functions.
Stereo and Surround Modes
Control|24 can operate in Stereo, LCRS, and 5.1
modes.
When monitoring in stereo mode, the Control
Room Monitor section supports single- and
multi-source monitoring. In LCRS or 5.1 sur-
round, the Control Room section provides
source control (solo and mute) of channels and
channel pairs, as well as overall level.
The mode you choose will determine your input
and output connection requirements. For infor-
mation on Surround configurations, see
Chapter 8, “Control Room Monitor Section.”
The Line Submixer Section
The Control|24 built-in submixer consists of
eight stereo input channels, which are sub-
mixed to the Control|24 stereo Submixer Master
control and output to the SUBMIXER OUT out-
puts (left and right, TRS connectors). Each chan-
nel is individually adjustable with its respective
Input Gain control.
Submixing returns from MDMs, routing synthe-
sizers, samplers, or drum machines, or returning
additional auxiliary busses are just a few exam-
ples of ways that this simple mixer can be used.
If you want to record the output of the Line Sub-
mixer, connect the SUBMIXER OUT outputs to
available Pro Tools audio interface inputs.
Footswitch
The SW 1 and SW 2 jacks can be assigned to any
of three available Footswitch functions:
• Play/stop
• Record (punch in/out)
• Remote Talkback on/off
Polarity is selectable for these switch ports, en-
abling you to use virtually any momentary foot-
switch to control these functions.
For more information about footswitch settings,
please refer to Appendix B, “Utility Functions.”
