4.D.7.5 The console’s headphone circuit
Section 2.C.5 shows where the console’s headphone connectors are situated. On Sy80, these
connectors are wired in parallel, to avoid connecting two pairs of low impedance headphones which
would give the headphone amplifier in the DSP module a hard time, and would lower the general level
of the headphone circuit.
As shown in the illustration below, the headphone circuit can be fed from the Monitor bus or from the
special “Select” Bus. In fact this bus contains nothing more than the selected bus signal (input or
output) whose [
SELECT ] button is active. This enables you, for example, to keep an eye on an input
to the headphones while listening to an output bus on the monitors.
The "Select" Bus is mono, and is selected in the MONITORING CONFIGURATION window.
The same sequence has been repeated for Circuits 2
and 3 ; in the illustration, three channels are assigned
to Circuit 2 .
Finally, pressing the [ CUE ] of one of these channels
automatically activates Circuit 2 , assigned to the
channel beforehand.
There is no function on the control surface that
allows the headphone circuit’s Select/Cue mode
to be selected.
