The knob right of the phones jack can be used to align
the headphones’ acoustic level with that of your main
monitor system. The idea is to switch between speakers
and phones (removing your headphones when listening
to the speakers) and adjust this control until speakers
and phones sound equally loud to you. From then on
just use the main dial for changing your monitor gain
and leave the phones control at its calibrated level.
In the bottom left corner of the display the clock status
of the UC1 is indicated. When the UC1 is connected to a
computer via the USB connector on the back, these
settings are controlled from the computer Operating
System.
When the back USB is not connected to a computer, the
clock source can be set manually. Please refer to the
menu chapter for instructions. If the UC1 is set up to
slave to an external source (BNC Word Clock, AES Digital
1 or 2), and it is not locked, the clock status turns red
and blinks.
The current function of the two small buttons is
indicated by the text on the display next to them. In the
main screen the bottom button toggles between the
selected main monitor and the analog 2nd speaker
output on the back. The top button brings you into the
menu. Since the first menu page offers access to various
monitor tools, this button may be used quite regularly.
More details can be found in the menu chapter.
Meters
In the main screen a simple three stage meter indicates
the current levels for all inputs and outputs and the
Metering screen, inputs & outputs view
