Samson SM10 Mixer User Manual

11. Output Meter – This six-segment meter shows the continuous output
level of the Main Mix, MON, EFX, or MIX B, depending on the position of
the SOURCE select switch (see #10). For optimum signal-to-noise ratio,
adjust all levels so that program material is usually at or around 0 VU, with
occasional, but not steady, excursions to the red segments.
12. MON OUT LEVEL – The SM10 provides a second MON output connec-
tor carrying a mono signal of the MON mix. The MON OUT LEVEL control
knob is used to set the volume of the MON OUT jack.
13. MON OUT Jack – The left and right MON mix are summed together to a
monaural signal and sent out this connector. The signal at the MON OUT
jack follows the MON OUT LEVEL (see #12) control knob.
14. HEADPHONE LEVEL – This knob sets the level of the signal sent to the
HEADPHONE jack. To avoid possible damage to connected headphones,
always turn this all the way o (to the fully counterclockwise position)
before plugging in a pair of headphones—then raise the level slowly
while listening.
15. HEADPHONE Jack – Connect standard stereo headphones to this jack
(via a 1/4” TRS plug) for monitoring of the MON, EFX, MIX B and Main
Output buses, depending on the position of the SOURCE select switch
(see #10).
