The cue points for all masters can be switched at once. To monitor the pre-master-fader signals engage the [MASTER PFL] switch, or disengage it to monitor the post-monitor-fader signals. In the latter case if the "PRE ON" cue point is selected (before the master [ON] switches - page 69) monitoring is possible even when output to the house speakers is off. [MASTER PFL] Switch [LAST CUE] Switch Monitor Control Section The Cue Stack Function All current [CUE] switch settings are normally disengaged if a [CUE] switch in a different section is engaged. When all panel [CUE] switches are turned off monitor output reverts to the main stereo program or 2-track input signal. In some situations, however, the PM5000 "cue stack" function applies.

Monitor Control Section
The cue points for all masters can be switched at once.
To monitor the pre-master-fader signals engage the
[MASTER PFL] switch, or disengage it to monitor the
post-monitor-fader signals. In the latter case if the “PRE
ON” cue point is selected (before the master [ON]
switches – page 69) monitoring is possible even when
output to the house speakers is off.
As described above cue monitoring can be active for one
section at a time. Normally when multiple [CUE]
switches in a section are engaged the corresponding
signals are all sent to the monitor outputs (MIX CUE
mode). When the [LAST CUE] switch is engaged,
however, only the last [CUE] switch engaged in any one
section will be active (LAST CUE mode).
NOTE
All active [CUE] switches will be disengaged when switching
between the MIX CUE and LAST CUE modes. A neat “trick” to
disengage all cues at once, therefore, is to engage and then
immediately disengage the [LAST CUE] switch.

The Cue Stack Function
All current [CUE] switch settings are normally
disengaged if a [CUE] switch in a different section
is engaged. When all panel [CUE] switches are
turned off monitor output reverts to the main stereo
program or 2-track input signal. In some situations,
however, the PM5000 “cue stack” function applies.
If, for example, cue monitoring is engaged for the
master out section, then the VCA section, and then
the input channel section (master out
➝
VCA
➝
input channel), and then all of the [CUE] switches
in one of the latter sections are disengaged, the cue
status of the preceding section will be restored.
Cue Stack Flow
• Master Out
➝
VCA
➝
Input Channel
• Master Out
➝
VCA
If all VCA [CUE] switches are disengaged the
preceding master out section cue status is restored.
• VCA
➝
Input Channel
If all input channel [CUE] switches are disengaged
the preceding VCA section cue status is restored.
• Master Out
➝
Input Channel
If all input channel [CUE] switches are disengaged
the preceding master out section cue status is
restored.
The cue stack function will not work if the above
order is reversed (input channel
➝
VCA
➝
master
out), or if a [CUE] switch in any other section is
engaged.
