Monitor Control Section When a channel [CUE] switch is operated directly the channel's pre-fader signal will be sent to the MONITOR OUTs regardless of whether the channel [ON] switch is engaged or disengaged. In contrast to this situation, cue monitoring of input channels via the VCA section is always AFL (post fader and post [PAN/BAL] control).

Monitor Control Section
42
When a channel [CUE] switch is operated directly the channel’s pre-fader signal will be sent to the
MONITOR OUTs regardless of whether the channel [ON] switch is engaged or disengaged. In contrast to
this situation, cue monitoring of input channels via the VCA section is always AFL (post fader and post
[PAN/BAL] control). For example, If a VCA master [CUE] switch is engaged, the [CUE] switches of all
channels assigned to that group will flash and only the signals from channels on which the channel [ON]
switch is engaged will be sent to the MONITOR outputs. It is therefore possible to switch individual
channels in a VCA group on or off while monitoring.
It is thus possible to monitor the PFL or AFL signal from each input channel, but a considerable shift in
level may occur when switching from one to the other. Cue trim controls are provided to compensate for
this: the [INPUT CUE TRIM] adjusts the PFL cue signal level while the [VCA CUE TRIM] control
adjusts the AFL cue signal level.
