stereo signal on the headphones, when you turn the phones volume open (5). Put the monitor
select switch (3) on input, then the input signal of channel 1 will appear on the left VU-meter
and the signal of channel 2 on the right VU-meter. This is very usefull for comparing the level
of these both signals. All these operations have no influence on the outputsignal! Adjust with
the level control (8) the input signal so that the yellow indicators of the level meters (2) light up
sometimes. Adjust if necessary the quality of the sound with the equalizer (9).
