Monitor Bus
The StudioLive features a headphone output and control-room outputs, giving you
the ability to monitor multiple sources on the StudioLive. The Monitor bus on the
StudioLive allows you to monitor the main outputs, Solo bus, and the main USB
return from your computer. Because the Monitor bus is a summing amp, you can
even monitor the World Series on your headphones while running sound at a show.
