„  Speakers / Outputs Controls  

 

 

The SPEAKERS / OUTPUTS buttons allow you to monitor the MasterControl’s MON / LINE OUTPUTS 
as follows: 

 

y

 

The “A” SPEAKERS / OUTPUTS button monitors the “A” outputs (Channels 1 and 2) 

y

 

The “B” SPEAKERS / OUTPUTS button monitors the “B” outputs (Channels 3 and 4) 

y

 

The “C” SPEAKERS / OUTPUTS button monitors the “C” outputs (Channels 5 and 6) 

 

You can monitor any of these three outputs individually or simultaneously.  Note that the channel pairs 
mentioned above simply refer to the stereo channels (L and R) on the rear panel of the MasterControl, 
not the channels in your DAW.  You can decide what channels from your DAW are sent to these outputs 
in the OUTPUT SOURCE page in the Global Menu. 

 

The 1-2 LEVEL knob controls the volume sent out of the analog outputs for any of the analog output 
pairs that are set to listen to DAW outputs 1/2.  If you wish to adjust the levels of other channels, you will 
have to do so within your DAW.  This knob will not affect the volume levels of the HEADPHONE 
OUTPUTS (which are actually controlled by the HEADPHONE 1 and 2 knobs underneath it). 

 
„  Headphone Controls 

 

 

The HEADPHONE 1 and HEAPDHONE 2 knobs control the volume of the signal sent to the respective 
HEADPHONE OUTPUTS on the MasterControl’s rear panel.   (These controls act independently from 
the SPEAKERS / OUTPUTS buttons and the 1-2 LEVEL knob.)  You can decide what channels from 
your DAW are sent to these outputs in the PHONES SOURCE page in the Global Menu. 

 
„  Talkback Controls  

 

 

Pressing the TALKBACK button allows you to talk to your musicians 
over the built-in microphone above the button.  When using talkback, 
the microphone’s signal will “override” whatever else is coming over 
the speakers (that is, the MasterControl’s Output A, B, and/or C) and 
the headphones.  You may hear a “click” when you press or release 
the TALKBACK button, which is normal.  If you want to avoid this, use an external footswitch (and set it 
to control the talkback feature in the Global Menus). 

 

You can set which output channels talkback affects and at what volume, in the Global Menu.  Make sure 
the appropriate SPEAKERS / OUTPUTS buttons are activated when using talkback – if your musicians 
can’t hear that output, they won’t hear talkback either.
