Monitoring A Signal - Yamaha PM5D Owner's Manual

Monitoring a signal

Here we explain how you can use the MONITOR section
to monitor the desired source.
1 Make sure that your monitor system is con-
nected to the rear panel MONITOR OUT jacks
L/R/C.
If you want to monitor through headphones, make
sure they are connected to the top panel or front panel
PHONES jack.
Note
• MONITOR OUT jack C is a special jack used to monitor the
center channel when LCR mode is active. Note that the
appropriate signal will not be output from MONITOR OUT
jack C unless the LCR channel is selected as the monitor
source and the USE AS CENTER BUS button is turned on
in the MIXER SETUP screen (SYS/W.CLOCK function)
( ➥ p.201).
• Turning on the [CUE] key of even one input channel, output
channel, or DCA group will override the settings of the MON-
ITOR section and cause the Cue signal to be output from
the MONITOR OUT jacks. Make sure that the CUE section
[INPUT]/[DCA]/[OUTPUT] LEDs are not lit.
2 To specify the channel that will be selected by
the [DEFINE] key, press the DISPLAY ACCESS
section [MON/CUE] key repeatedly to access
the MONITOR screen shown below.

3 Click a button in the DEFINE area to select the
channel that will be monitored when you
press the [DEFINE] key.
You can assign more than one channel to the
[DEFINE] key. You can choose from the following
sources.
MIX 1–MIX24 Output signals of MIX channels 1–24
MATRIX1–MATRIX8 Output signals of MATRIX buses 1–8
Hint
The MONITOR screen also lets you make settings for monitor
signal delay, insert-out/in, and dimmer ( ➥ p.216).
