[QUOTE="Dan Mortensen, post: 97197, member: 2826"] Re: X32 as a monitor desk I don't have a console in front of me (hence the ambiguity about the default listening in the earlier post) to confirm this, but IF the mon output is still going through the Monitor rotary pot when it's also going through the L/R fader, then that Mon pot has to be at max clockwise rotation as it is an attenuator from unity and not a gain control. Regardless of whether it does or not, when that system is at unity gain the output from the Mon out when solo'ing a mix will be exactly the same level as the output on the XLR going to that mix, which is what the monitor operator needs in order to know exactly what the artist is hearing. If there's a level imbalance between the solo'd input and the solo'd mix output, that *should* be the same on an analog or a digital board, and is due to the operator's setting input trims high and output masters low. That could be alleviated by turning down the monitor amp gains and turning up the mix master levels, or some other relative gain adjustments between input and output. [/QUOTE]
