The visibility of the Monitor strip depends on whether the Monitor functionality is activated in the Audio Selection Dialog.

Monitor

From bottom to top:

The Monitors Audio Input is used as a Talk Back Microphone. CUE will route it to the Monitors Speakers for audible test, setting its level with the Gain knob. Above the knob it shows the name of the chosen Monitor Microphone.

The Dim Mix knob controls the level of suppression applied to the MIX audio through the Monitor speakers when a channel is engaged in Talk Back mode.

The knob with the name of the chosen Monitor output controls the level on the Monitor Speakers.

An indicator shows the state of the Monitor: MIX is shown when only the mix-bus is heard through the Monitor Speakers. PRE-MIX is the same state but indicating all channels as MUTED or not ON. The CUE state indicates that you are listening to a Cue’d channel. If you have a channel in Talk Back mode it will show TB or when the option “Mute Output when Talkback is ON (set when using speakers)” in the Audio Selecting Dialog is set it will show MUTED.

The VU level Meter shows the outgoing audio level.

Mix

The Mix channel strip has Fader to control the level of the Mix-bus to the Main Audio Output. Showing the name of the Main Mix Output chosen in the Audio Selection Dialog.

The clock shows the current local system time.

An indicator shows the state of the Main: ON AIR in Red to indicate that Audio is send to the Main output, or a ON AIR in grey to indicate no audio or silence is on the Main output. If Luci Studio MX is still working in Demo mode (without a valid license) the indicator show DEMO during the 1 second silence.
