Once you have the tape tracks returning to the mixer, it is simple to create a cue mix
for the musicians to listen to over headphones while overdubbing. The cue mix is
created using MONITOR 1/2 on the Studio 24, because it is a pre-fader mix that is
independent from all other mixes. Follow the instructions in the previous pages to
get a monitor mix if you have not already done so.
Built-in headphone amp
The simplest solution for headphone monitoring is to simply plug into the
headphone jack at the upper right hand side of the Studio 24. You may run a stereo
extension cable from this jack; it will power most standard headphones. (If the
phones aren’t loud enough, consider trying some more efficient headphones with a
lower impedance and a closed-cup design.)
The headphones will hear exactly what’s heard in the Control Room, as set by the
CONTROL ROOM SOURCE buttons. With all buttons in the up position, the
headphones hear the L/R mix. Pressing any of the SOURCE buttons will send the
mix of the lowest button to the headphones (as well as to the Control Room).
Pressing SOLO will also affect the headphones. Only the CONTROL ROOM LEVEL
knob will not affect the headphones.
Note that if the LINK TO L/R switches on the GROUP and/or MONITOR 1/2
MASTER sections are pressed, the signals coming from these busses will be added to
the L/R mix in the headphones.
Using an external headphone amp
The MONITOR OUTPUTS L and R on the Studio 24’s back panel may be connected
directly to the inputs of a headphone amplifier (see page 44,
Connecting to a
Headphone Amp
). In this case, the MONITOR 1/2 MASTER control will set the overall
level going to the headphones.
Turn down the input controls (if provided) of the headphone
amplifier itself so that average levels from the monitor section (up
to +10 on the meter) do not make the headphones too loud.
Option:
You may use a standard “stereo splitter” cable with the TRS 3-conductor end
plugged into the Headphone output jack and connect it to an amplifier, with the
headphone level set to about 12 o’clock.
