MONO, STEREO AND MIXMODE CONTROL

The bodypack provides simple configuration of a monitor mix and enables the user to customize 
an individual mix in a multiple mix environment.  Three monitoring modes are available - mono, 
stereo, and MixMode.

Mono:

  The bodypack receives one signal from the mixer and sends that signal to both earphones.  

For mono signals, use MixMode (MIX ON).

Stereo:

  The bodypack receives two signals (L and R) from the mixer and sends the signals to the 

left and right earphones, respectively. The balance knob adjusts the balance between the left and 
right earphones.  For stereo signals, use the MIX OFF setting.

MixMode: 

 Allows the performer to easily adjust the monitor mix 

during

 the performance.  In Mix-

Mode, the bodypack receives two signals, such as a band mix and a vocal mix.  The balance knob 
adjusts the mix of these two signals.  The mixed signal is sent to 

both

 the left and right earphones.  

For example, if the band is overpowering the vocals in the mix, the vocal levels can be increased 
and the band mix level decreased by simply adjusting the balance knob.
