Stereo and Surround
Monitoring Modes
Control|24 can be used to monitor in Stereo
mode, or in a supported multichannel Surround
modes (LCRS, and 5.1).
Global monitoring modes are selectable be-
tween stereo, LCRS Surround, and 5.1 Surround
with dedicated switches. Each mode has unique
features and options, which require audio con-
nections appropriate for stereo, LCRS, or 5.1
routing.
Stereo Monitor Mode Overview
In stereo mode, the Control Room Monitor sec-
tion lets you monitor in stereo, with the follow-
ing features:
• Source switching between six stereo sound
sources (Pro Tools Sources 1&2, 3&4, and
5&6; stereo External Sources 1–3).
• Switching between MAIN or ALT monitors,
each with independently-adjustable levels.
• Control of Aux output levels, for cue and
headphone mixes.
• DIM, MUTE, and MONO monitoring modes.
•Talkback and Listenback controls.
• Stereo monitoring can be configured for sin-
gle-source or multi-source monitoring.
Monitoring Single and Multiple
Input Sources
In Stereo Monitor mode, input can be set for sin-
gle source (default) or multi-source operation.
(In Surround modes, multi-source/discrete rout-
ing is always enabled.)
Surround Monitor Mode Overview
The Control Room Monitor section enables you
to use discrete Surround mix sources for moni-
toring:
• 4-channel LCRS Surround, comprised of four
signals: Left, Center, Right, and Surround
(mono).
• 6-channel Surround (5.1) comprised of six sig-
nals: Left, Right, Center, LFE (Subwoofer), Left

encoding and decoding hardware or software in
order to create multi-channel mixes. See “5.1
