Trident 88 Owners Manual 19
Trident 88 Master Module Monitor Section
2-TRK 1
When depressed this selects either
the signal from the stereo 2-TRK 1
Return TRS jacks (on the rear master
connector panel) or the stereo sig-
nal plugged in the STEREO IN JACK
(above) and feeds it to the control
room monitors. The stereo 2-TRK 1 re-
turn signal from the TRS jacks is nor-
malled to the STEREO IN JACK signal
and if a signal wire is plugged into the
STEREO IN JACK, it replaces the sig-
nal from the 2-TRK 1 Return TRS jacks
and that is the signal that is switched
to the main monitors. Note: When this
switch is depressed, the main Left/
Right mix is disconnected from the
control room monitors, also if 2-TRK 2
switch is depressed (below), this kills
the 2-TRK 1 signal to the control room
monitors. For monitoring signals into
control room monitors, the priority is
SOLO mix -—> 2-TRK 2 —> 2-TRK 1 —>
main Left/Right mix.
STEREO IN JACK
(3.5mm, 1/8”)
This jack allows the engineer to plug
in an external stereo signal via a stan-
dard 1/8” wire cable ( i.e iPod) which
can then be selected to the main
control room monitors. To assign this
signal into the main monitors, the user
has to depress the 2-TRK 1 switch.
MONITOR LEVEL
CONTROL
This control adjusts the level of the
stereo signal feeding the control room
monitors.
MONITOR MUTE
When depressed this switch kills the
signal being fed to the control room
monitors.
HEADPHONE LEVEL
This control adjusts the level of sig-
nal fed to the headphone jack below.
The signal fed to the Control Room
Monitors also feeds the headphone
jack and this Headphone level control
can be adjusted independently of the
main MONITOR CONTROL LEVEL.
2-TRK 2
When depressed this selects the sig-
nal from the stereo 2-TRK 2 Return
TRS jacks (on the rear master con-
nector panel) to the control room
monitors. This switch has priority over
2-TRK 1 switch above. (see description
2 TRK 1 above)
SUM MONO
Combines the Left and Right signals
feeding the control room monitors
to produce a summed (L+R) mono
signal, that feeds both Left and Right
monitor outputs. Note: The SUM
MONO facility is purely a monitor
function and does NOT aect the
main stereo Left/Right output which
remains as a true stereo image.
STEREO HEADPHONE
JACK (3.5mm, 1/8”)
A headphone jack with a high quality
stereo amplifier is provided, so that if
the engineer wishes to monitor the
console only on headphones, they can
be connected to the jack socket in the
master section. A separate stereo vol-
ume control is provided, so that the
level of the headphones can be ad-
justed independently.
Trident 88 The Master Module Studio Playback
DIM
When depressed, this reduces the level
of the main monitor outputs by approx
30dB.
Note: this has no eect on the main
Left/Right outputs of the console.
