Chapter 3: Using Studio Monitor Express
Studio Monitor Express provides several tabs in which you patch and configure audio between SME and your workstation. Once
configured, SME lets you switch between multiple speaker setups, mute and dim monitor outputs, listen to and control external
sources (such as a CD player), and utilize Talkback.
When the workstation and Artist device are connected, changes made in either the
Main
tab or on an Artist surface are reflected
in the other.

The
Main
tab provides sliders, settings, and a
Source
