Selecting The Mode - Shure PSM 300 Guia Del Usuario

Creating Monitor Mixes
The mix that performers hear on stage is usually different than the
mix heard by the audience. In live sound applications, the engineer
creates a separate mix to send to the performer by routing the input
signals to specified mixer outputs, usually called Monitor or Auxiliary
outputs.
The following scenario demonstrates a generic signal path for
monitoring mixes, and may not reflect the routing for all mixer types.
Consult the user guide for your mixer for detailed signal routing
options.
① Mixer Channel
Each mixer channel controls audio processing and routing for
a single audio source. In this example, a vocal microphone is
plugged into the mixer channel.
② Monitor/Auxiliary Sends
Adjust the signal levels to send to the monitor/auxiliary outputs,
each of which corresponds to a separate monitoring mix. Each of
these mixes are sent to separate channels on the P3T transmitter.
Note:
The channel faders on most mixers do not affect the volume of the
monitor/auxiliary sends.
③ Wireless Transmission
Each monitoring mix is transmitted on a separate channel to the
P3R receiver. The MixMode knob on the bodypack adjusts the
blend between the audio from channel 1 and channel 2.

MixMode and Stereo Monitoring
The receiver can operate in stereo or MixMode when the transmitter is set
to STEREO-MX. In applications that involve multiple bodypack receivers tuned
to a single transmitter, some bodypacks can operate in stereo, while others
operate in MixMode.

Selecting the Mode

Stereo: The receiver is set to stereo mode by default. To switch from
MixMode to stereo, simply turn the receiver off and it will return to stereo
mode when powered back on.
MixMode: Press and hold the GROUP button on the
bodypack receiver while turning the power on. The MixMode
indicator light on the receiver display turns on to confirm the
setting. The receiver will return to stereo mode after it has
been powered off.
Stereo
Audio from channel 1 is heard on
the left earphone, while audio from
channel 2 is heard on the right
earphone. Listening in stereo mode
increases separation between the
sources on each channel, which can
improve clarity when many sources
are being monitored. The MixMode
knob on the bodypack adjusts left/
right balance when operating in stereo
mode.
MixMode
MixMode allows performers to adjust the blend between two monitoring
mixes (an instrumental mix and a vocal mix, for example). When using
MixMode:
• Each mix is heard through both the left and right earphones
• The MixMode knob adjusts the volume blend between the two monitor
mixes (channel 1 and channel 2)
• Each bodypack receiver can dial in a unique blend to meet the

monitoring needs of each performer

channel 2:

When to Use the Mono Setting
In some cases, only a single input on the transmitter is used (if the mixer only
features a single monitor/auxiliary output, for example). To ensure that audio
is heard on both the left and right earphones:
• Use the LEFT/CH1 input on the transmitter
• Set the transmitter to MONO
Note: When the transmitter is set to mono operation, the MixMode knob
will not affect the sound.
