Operation 

 

MonitorMax has two completely independent monitor paths consisting of the 

Cue

 section, 

primarily intended for studio headphone feeds, and the 

Monitor

 section, that includes all the 

functions associated with studio control room monitoring. 

  

Stereo input sources (

ST #

) can be selected using the labeled switches on the Cue and Monitor 

sections of the MonitorMax Controller.  Output levels can be adjusted with the Cue and Monitor 
level knobs.  A separate mute is provided for both the Cue and the Monitor section.  The Monitor 
section also includes a level programmable 

Dim

, a 

Mono

 listen mode, and an 

Alt

 switch for 

feeding a secondary set of speakers. 
The default 

Talkback

 mode feeds the Cue while dimming the Cue and Monitor sources. 

 

 
   
 

Programmable Functions 

 
Once all the connections have been made, MonitorMax is ready to use with the factory default 
settings. However many options can be set to customize the operation according to the specific 
needs of the user.
