1.2 Studio Monitor Express Application
The MC includes Studio Monitor Express (SME), a powerful monitoring application
that resides on the application workstation and controls audio routing between applica-
tions that support ASIO hardware on the PC, Core Audio applications on the Mac, and
their respective hardware interfaces. See page 73 to configure SME.
1.3 How to Use the PDF
The Acrobat PDF version of this manual can be a valuable “online help” learning tool
while using the MC. For those not familiar with Acrobat, here are some useful features
of the PDF:
• The Bookmarks on the left serve as a continuously visible table of contents
while reading. Click on a subject heading to jump to that page. Click a + sym-
bol to expand that heading to show subheadings. Click the - symbol to collapse
the subheadings.
• The manual’s table of contents and list of figures are “active links” to their pages.
Select the “hand” cursor, allow it to hover over the heading and turn into a “fin-
ger.” Then click to locate to that subject and page.
• All cross references are active links. Allow the “hand” cursor to hover over the
reference, turn into a “finger,” and click to follow the reference.
• Use the left and right arrow keys on the top bar to go back and forth between
views. This is a great way to follow a cross reference and return to the page
from which you were reading.
• Select the Find item from the Edit menu (Ctrl-F) to search for a subject. This
can be used as an “index on the fly.”
• Use the magnifying glass tool or the zoom edit box on the top bar to zoom in/
out. This is helpful when examining a complex graphic or setting the text size
for easy reading online.
Acrobat Reader version 4 or later is required to open the PDF. This can be downloaded
