(7) Monitor Knob
Rotate this knob to adjust the volume of speakers connected to the Monitor outputs. The output signal level
meters indicate the output levels.
(8) Headphone Output
Connect stereo headphones to this output. Headphones are connected with a ¼” (6.35 mm) TRS plug. If your
headphones have a ⅛” (3.5 mm) plug, use a TRS ⅛” to ¼” adapter.
(9) Headphone Volume Knob
Adjust the headphone volume with this knob. The headphone volume control is independent from the Monitor
volume control.
Note: The monitor output and headphone signals are the same.
(10) Direct Monitoring Button
Press this button to cycle through available direct monitoring options.
Direct monitoring is on when the button is lit blue or orange, and off when the button is unlit.
Important: Direct monitoring applies to the input signals only. You always hear audio from your computer or
audio software regardless of this setting.
ON (Orange) — When the button is lit orange, the inputs are panned to the left and right in stereo.
ON (Blue) — When the button is lit blue, the inputs are panned to the center in mono.
DIRECT MONITORING NOTES
When enabled, direct monitoring slightly reduces the volume from your audio software so you can clearly
hear your input signals.
When direct monitoring is on, disable the software monitoring feature in your audio software to prevent
signal doubling, which can make your input sound thin or “phasey.”
When direct monitoring is o, you may notice your inputs have latency (a slight delay) before they are heard,
as a result of buering and signal processing by the audio software.
WHAT IS DIRECT MONITORING?
Use direct monitoring on Volt to hear your input signals with no delay in your headphones and monitor
speakers.
With direct monitoring, you hear the input signals directly from the Volt hardware with no delay or latency,
bypassing your audio software’s buffers
