2.3.3 Monitoring Mode Select
The Monitor Mode select accesses five of the most commonly used monitoring modes available
to PAM1 MK2 users. Since the available monitoring modes are generally used dynamically during
hands-on operation, the Shortcut Menu remains open even when a selection is made. The Back
or Shortcut buttons are used to exit the Shortcut Menu after a monitoring mode selection has
been made.

Monitoring Mode
– Downmix
The PAM1 MK2 Downmix Mode allows the operator to select an adjacent group of 3 audio pairs
(6 audio channels) and create a stereo Downmix
By repeatedly selecting the DnMix button, the group of selected audio pairs move from left to
right across the bargraph display enabling the user to Downmix discrete 5.1 or 5.0 audio from
any location within the 16 channels displayed. Pressing and rotating the Downmix button also
enables the user to scroll through the pair’s selection in the sequence
123, 234, 345, 456, 567 and
678, downmixing the appropriate surround sound audio signals as desired.
The
Downmix Mode assumes that audio channels are presented in the correct SMPTE order (L,
R, C, Lfe, Ls, and Rs). The Downmix Mode uses the ITU-R BS.775 algorithm standard.
The example above shows how SDI1 pairs 2, 3 and 4 can be Downmixed to stereo
Once the 5.1 audio components are selected and
Downmixed , the selection can be stored to a
Hotkey for instant recall.

Monitoring Mode
– Lt Rt / Lo Ro (Dolby Downmix)
The PAM1 MK2 Lt Rt / Lo Ro (Dolby Downmix) Mode allows the operator to instantly select the
Dolby Downmix mode when decoding a Dolby E, AC-3 or Dolby Digital Plus signal. This mode is
only active when a Dolby signal is present.
