02R Getting Started Guide
Creating a Monitor Mix
The 02R has two different monitoring outputs—the control room outputs
and the studio outputs—plus, of course, the PHONES output (which is a
duplicate of the control room output).
During a multitrack recording session, what you want to listen to in the
control room is often very different from what the musicians need in the
studio. For example, while recording a rhythm section, the bass player and
the drummer may want to hear the kick drum at a much higher volume
than you need in the control room.
To cater to this requirement, the 02R allows you to create a mono monitor
mix using either AUX 5 or AUX 6 or a stereo mix using both AUX 5 and
AUX 6.
Monitor Mix Process
The process for creating the monitor mix is similar to the steps detailed in
“Setting the Aux Send Level” on page 43 of the Getting Started Guide
1.
Press the [AUX 5] button.
2.
Select MIC/LINE 1 using the [SEL] buttons or the CURSOR buttons.
Turn the aux send on by pressing the [AUX 5] button and then the [ON]
button in the AUX group of the SELECTED CHANNEL controls.
You should leave the send pre-fader. This will allow the musicians to
continue to hear each other independently of anything you may be doing
in the control room.
3.
Press the [AUX 5] button of the STUDIO buttons group.
You should also press the [AUX 5] button of the CONTROL ROOM
buttons group so you can hear the results of adjusting the levels.
4.
Adjust the fader for MIC/LINE 1 until the desired signal level is
obtained.
Use the Talkback system to check with your musicians, to see if they are
content with the signal levels you have set. When you finish setting the
studio monitor levels, press the [ST] button of the CONTROL ROOM
buttons group for monitoring in the control room.
