There.are.4.basic.configurations.in.which.the.HPA-8.can.be.
used,.all.of.which.are.functional.in.mono.or.stereo..These.input/.
output.configurations.are.selected.simply.by.plugging.your.input.
source.into.the.appropriate.input-sets..The.modes.of.operation.are.
described.below.as.1-8.(meaning.that.a.single.program.source.is.
directed.to.all.1-8.outputs),.1-4./.5-8,.1-6./.7-8,.1-4./.5-6./.7-8.
To use the HPA-8 in the 1-8 mode
Connect.a.stereo.or.mono.program.source.to.the.A.input-set.at.the.
rear.of.the.unit..Your.source.will.be.distributed.to.all.8.headphone.
outputs.
To use the HPA-8 in 1-4 / 5-8 mode
Connect.a.stereo.or.mono.source.to.A.input-set,.then.connect.
a.2nd.stereo.or.mono.source.to.the.B.input-set..This.distributes.
source.B.to.be.to.headphone.outputs.5-8,.while.source.A.is.
distributed.to.headphone.outputs.1-4.
To use the HPA-8 in 1-6 / 7-8 mode
Connect.a.stereo.or.mono.source.to.A.input-set,.then.connect.
a.2nd.stereo.or.mono.source.to.the.C.input-set..This.distributes.
source.C.to.headphone.outputs.7-8,.while.source.A.is.distributed.
to.headphone.outputs.1-6.
To use the HPA-8 in 1-4 / 5-6 / 7-8 mode
Connect.a.stereo.or.mono.source.to.A.input-set,.connect.a.
2nd.stereo.or.mono.source.to.the.B.input-set,.then.connect.
a.3rd.stereo.or.mono.source.to.C..This.distributes.source.C.
to.headphone.outputs.7-8,.while.source.B.is.distributed.to.
headphone.outputs.5-6.and.source.A.is.distributed.to.headphone.
outputs.1-4.
Mono/ Stereo operation
In.any.In/Out.configuration,.it.may.be.desirable.to.use.the.unit.with.
mono.program.source(s)..This.is.made.possible.by.the.addition.of.
a.mono/stereo.switch.per.input-set..When.using.the.HPA-8.with.a.
mono.source.program,.simply.use.the.“L/Mono”.input,.and.select.
mono.mode.by.pressing.the.mono-stereo.switch.in.
It.is.possible.to.use.the.HPA-8’s.output.distributions.in.mono.and.
stereo.modes.simultaneously..For.example,.by.selecting.stereo.
mode.at.input-set.A,.and.selecting.mono.mode.at.unused.input-
sets.B.or.C,.(refer.to.the.distribution.configurations.detailed.in.
the.preceding.paragraphs).it.is.possible.to.monitor.the.program.
source.in.stereo.at.outputs.1-4,.while.monitoring.the.program.
source.in.mono.at.outputs.5-8..The.program.source.at.the.L/Mono.
input.for.input-set.A.will.be.routed.to.both.left/.tip.and.right/.ring.
earphones.for.outputs.5-8.in.this.example..Note.that.if.the.input-
set.used.is.in.mono.mode,.all.distributed.outputs.will.be.mono.
regardless.of.the.other.mono/stereo.switch.positions.
Monitoring two mono sources with one headphone output
Another.monitoring.option.that.can.be.realized.with.the.HPA-8.is.
split-distribution.of.different.mono.program.sources..This.can.be.
accomplished.by.utilizing.the.R.inputs.of.input-sets.B.and.C.(in.
stereo.mode).while.using.the.L/Mono.input.of.input-set.A..In.this.
configuration,.source.A.will.be.routed.to.the.left.earphone/.tip.of.
distributed.headphone.outputs.while.source.B.is.routed.to.the.right.
earphone/.ring.
