Apollo Thunderbolt Software Manual Console Reference 109
DIM Controls
DIM is used to quickly reduce the listening volume in the control room by a set amount
and quickly return to the prior volume.
DIM Amount – This control adjusts the amount of attenuation level that is applied to the
main monitor mix when the DIM switch is engaged. The default value is -20 dB with an
available range of 0 dB to -60 dB.
DIM Enable – When engaged (lit), the monitor outputs (and ALT outputs, when active)
are attenuated by the DIM Amount.
Tip: Press DIM quickly to latch the function. Press and hold DIM for 0.5 seconds
to momentarily engage the function and deactivate DIM when the button is
released.
Monitor Source Select
These switches select the mix bus that is sent to Apollo’s
monitor outputs. The source is selected when its switch is lit.
MIX
When MIX is selected, the main monitor mix, summed with
any DAW outputs assigned monitor outputs (if applicable), is
routed to the monitor outputs.
Cue 1, 2, 3, 4 (Apollo rack models)
When a CUE is selected, that cue mix (the mix created
from cue sends in Console), summed with any DAW outputs
assigned to the cue (if applicable), is routed to the monitor outputs.
HP, LINE 3/4 (Apollo Twin)
When HP or LINE 3/4 is selected, the respective cue mix, summed with any DAW
outputs assigned to the respective HP or LINE 3/4 outputs (if applicable), is routed to
the monitor outputs.
CUE INACTIVE Dialog
CUE, HP, or LINE 3/4 can be selected as a monitor source
only if its respective source in the Cue Outputs Popover is
not set to MIX.
Allowing those settings would be the same as simply
selecting MONITOR as the source with the monitor source
switch, except that you wouldn’t be able to determine the
current route without opening the cue outputs window.
If the CUE INACTIVE dialog appears when attempting to
enable a cue as the monitor source, close the dialog then open the CUE OUTPUTS
popover and switch that cue’s source from MIX to the cue bus.
