[. . . ] By utilizing the mode switches located below the LOCAL MONITOR OUTPUT level control, these signals can be derived in a number of different ways. In default mode (no switches depressed), the post-fader left and right MASTER signals are routed through LOCAL MONITOR level control and appear at the MONITOR OUT balanced male XLR connectors on the rear-panel. This feed is replaced by the SOLO signal when a SOLO is activated on the console. monitor-out level see--alternate out sum mono see--alternate out solo-off When any of the SOLO switches on the console are active, the SOLO audio is routed in stereo through the MONITOR OUT level control and appears at the left and right MONITOR OUT balanced male XLR connector on the rear-panel. This setting overrides the left and right feed to the MONITOR output. When any of the SOLO switches on the console are active, the outputs are not affected. MONITOR monitor talkback--TALK TO MONITOR OUT The TALKBACK system output is added to the left and right MONITOR outputs. The level of the TALKBACK signal is set by the TALKBACK level control in the MASTER section. p. 87 5 master HS module module block diagram X-Eight owner's manual panel p. 88 master HS module 5 local monitor output features talkback mono--TALK TO MONO The TALKBACK system output is added to the mono MASTER output. The level of the TALKBACK signal is set by the TALKBACK level control in the MASTER section. main left/right to mono--L/R TO MONO The MAIN left and right post-fader signals are summed together as a mono signal and are routed to the mono bus. The summed left and right signals automatically combine with any signals that are assigned directly to the mono bus to make up the mono output. The mono output consists exclusively of signals assigned directly to the mono bus. Signals that appear at the MAIN left and right faders do not appear at the mono output. signal/peak LED--SIG/PEAK This dual-color LED responds to the pre-fader mono signal. It illuminates green with varying brightness in proportion to the audio signal. When the signal approaches clipping, either pre or post fader, the LED illuminates red.

Other signals can be routed through the TALKBACK system including an external tone oscillator or the built in PINK NOISE generator. talkback level This control sets the level that appears at any of the outputs with their respective TALK TO switches engaged. It also governs the audio level at the TALKBACK output on the rear panel. pink noise The TALKBACK in-connector is disabled and PINK NOISE is sent though the TALKBACK system. talkback on--TALK ON This switch must be activated for the TALKBACK system to operate. There are two-ways to activate it: 1 Momentary - Depressing the button for more-than 1/2 of a second will cause it to act as a momentary switch. When the button is released, the TALKBACK section will be shut-off. 2 On / Off - A quick tap on the button (less-than 1/2 second) will cause the switch to electronically change its state from on-to-off or from off-to-on. left/right/center--LCR TO OUTPUTS This feature is useful for monitoring the console when creating an LCR mix. Local monitoring is usually done with two speakers. The LCR to outputs feature combines the center (or mono) signal with the left and right signals, creating a phantom center channel. This feature affects the ALT OUT section, the MONITOR OUT section, the HEARING ASSIST output and the headphone feed. Center (mono) channel is not included in the MONITOR paths. The center (or mono) channel is combined with left and right MONoutputs. This makes it possible to hear the center channel without a designated speaker.
