Axia Element - Studio Monitor (Monitor 2) Options

5: Show Proles • 92
©2008 Axia Audio — Rev. 3.0
CR HEADPHONE INDEPENDENT: Lets you
choose whether, for this Show Profile, the Control
Room headphones should be fed the same audio as
the Monitor 1 Speakers (Follow Monitors) or if
the board op is allowed to select a source for head-
phones independent of the Monitor Speakers (Use
Headphone Source Select). You may also Retain
Existing Setting.
PREVIEW-IN-HEADPHONES MODE: Choices are
Off, Normal, Auto and Retain Existing Setting.
If set to Off, sources assigned to the Preview bus will
only be heard in the Control Room Preview speakers,
leaving the board operator’s headphones to continu-
ously monitor the selected source. In Normal mode,
audio from the Preview bus will feed the board op’s
headphones, in stereo, whenever Preview is active,
interrupting the selected source. Auto mode sums
Preview audio to mono and feeds it to the right head-
phone; the selected source audio is also summed to
mono and fed to the left headphone.
CR HEADPHONE EQ ACTIVE: Set headphone EQ
for Bypass, Active or Retain Existing Setting.
CR HEADPHONE EQ HIGH MODE: Switches high-
frequency EQ model between Shelf and Bandpass,
or Retain Existing Setting.
CR HEADPHONE EQ HIGH FREQUENCY: You can
specify the top of the High Frequency Shelf, or the
middle frequency of the Bandpass filter (depending
upon which model was chosen for EQ High Mode),
or Retain Existing Setting.
CR HEADPHONE EQ MID FREQUENCY / EQ
LOW FREQUENCY: Choose the middle frequency
of the Low and Middle EQ bands, or Retain Exist-
ing Setting.
CR HEADPHONE EQ HIGH GAIN / EQ MID GAIN
/ EQ LOW GAIN: dial in boost or cut for the three
EQ bands, or Retain Existing Setting.

Studio Monitor (Monitor 2) Options
MONITOR ASSIGNMENT: Choose to load PGM1,
PGM2, PGM3, PGM4, AUX A, AUX B, AUX C, AUX
D or an External source to the Monitor 2 channel
when the Show Profile is loaded. You can also choose
No Source if you wish the Profile to be loaded with
nothing assigned to the Control Room monitor.
SOURCE ID FOR EXTERNAL INPUT: Use this
drop-down box to choose what source will be audi-
tioned when External is chosen from the Studio 2
monitor assignment list.
STUDIO MONITOR MASTER GAIN: Allows you
to Use as much as -85 dB of gain reduction on the
audio signal sent to the Monitor 2 Speakers. You can
also turn gain control Off or Retain Existing Set-
ting.
STUDIO MONITOR DIM GAIN: Specify the
amount of volume by which the Monitor 2 speakers
will dim when Talk To... or Preview is in use. Use
as much as -30 dB of cut, turn the option Off, or Re-
tain Existing Setting.
GPIO GHANNEL FOR STUDIO MONITOR: In this
box, you assign Monitor 2 a channel number, effec-
tively making it a “source” to which logic commands
can be associated. You’ll enter this channel number
in the GPIO Setup web page to assign a GPIO port
for these logic funtions. See Chapter Three, “GPIO
Configuraton,” for more information.
This option should typically be programmed with
the same logic channel number for all show profiles
on a single Element, since this function is primarily
used for “on-air” warning light control.
Staying ahead of the game: You might not
have a second studio controlled from your Ele-
ment — but we still recommend that you pro-
gram this option for each Show Prole. Why?
The Studio Monitor logic has other functions,
and works in conjunction with the Control Room
Monitor logic. If you program it now, you won’t
have to go back and do it later.
