10 MINIMON MON800 User Manual
4. Application Examples
The MINIMON gives you a great number of monitoring options,
whichyou would otherwise nd only in costly mixing consoles .
Therefore, an ideal eld of application is to use the MON800 to control
and distribute signals in a recording environment. However, with its
exibility the MON800 is also the ideal tool for P.A. applications.
4.1 The MINIMON in a recording
environment
A typical example of how to use the MON800 is the computer-based
production of music with additional instrument or voice recordings.
The following illustration shows an example of how to wire the unit in
such an environment.
As a central element of this conguration, the computer is connected
via its audio card to the MIN IN A or B jacks (22) of the MON800.
Additional sound modules, which are connected to the computer,
forexample, via MIDI, can be wired to the remaining inputs
(depending on the respective connecting plugs). Playback devices
(CD,MD, etc.) should be connected to the CD/TAPE IN jacks (21).
Connect your main monitor speakers to the SPEAKERS OUT A jacks (18).
Output B (17) isfor a second pair of speakers. Often, smaller systems
are used as secondary speakers, so that it is possible to evaluate a mix
over less powerful systems. A sub-woofer is an ideal complement
to such a pair of speakers and should be connected to output C (17),
sincethe levels of both outputs can be adjusted simultaneously.
If required, you can also connect a third pair of speakers, ideally with
an adjustable amplier stage, so that you can set the volume of the
speaker pair C independently of the SPK LEVEL B + C control (5).
