Monitor Control Section Solo Mode Cue and Solo The terms "solo" and "cue" monitoring are often used interchangeably, and in some cases they are actually the same thing. In the PM5000 and most other sound-reinforcement consoles, however, "CUE" is a signal sent to the operator's monitor speakers while "SOLO" is a signal sent to the speakers fed by the console's master or matrix outs. Since solo monitoring in the PM5000 is handled in essentially the same way as cue monitoring, the term "cue/solo function" can be used in cases in which no clear distinction is necessary.
