Basic Operation 

This unit is setup to provide individual headphone sends to the performers in the live space of 
Studio D.  This is achieved by using the mono auxiliary send outputs from the ZED-R16  which 
are patched directly into the back of the headphone amp. You will require the following 
settings to operate the unit correctly: 

 

Balance control turned 

FULLY

 to the right (Aux setting).  

 

Mono L engaged in the mono control section. 

 

Patch cable from the rear of the headphone output connected to the appropriate 
headphone send in the patch bay (shown in photo below). 

 

Only headphone amps 1-3 are connected.
