? 1 pair of stereo RCA Aux inputs

? 1 S/PDIF coaxial digital input (44.1/48/88.2/96kHz)

■ Professional Monitoring Features

Manage multiple analog and digital audio inputs, up to 3 monitor speakers, track with 4 high-power headphone amplifiers, and provide talkback to the drummer?all from a single desktop unit.

■ Supports Various Sources

Monitor Station V2 is a convenient desktop control center that allows you to switch between these sources without compromising sound quality.

The stereo inputs (TRS1, TRS2, Aux) can be routed to either the main or cue audio path, and two different signals (main and cue) can be routed to each of the four headphone amplifiers. For example, you can send the mix and click to TRS 2 input, the main mix to TRS 1, and monitor the cue or main mix with headphones. The main audio path always supplies the same source as the control room.

■ Manage Output Destinations

You can select and monitor from three speaker outputs, each with individual level controls, and four high-volume headphone outputs.

■ Remote Communication with Headphones is Also Easy

Using the built-in electret condenser talkback microphone with level control, you can communicate with musicians via headphones. The red talk button activates the microphone and simultaneously attenuates the cue signal by 20dB.

■ Customize to Your Style

The 8-segment, 3-color LED meter offers three modes for use with signal levels of +4dB, +10dB, and +18dB.

The mono switch mixes the stereo output into mono, allowing you to check for phase issues. A large knob controls the main speaker output level (not the main line-level output), and a dim switch with an attenuation knob allows you to reduce the speaker output by various values ??(-30 to -6 dB). Of course, you can also mute the speakers.

Input selection, speaker selection, and the aforementioned LED meter modes can be changed and saved to your preferred settings when the power is turned on.

Inputs can be set to either summing mode (TRS1, TRS2, and Aux-S/PDIF mixed) or toggle mode (only one of TRS1, TRS2, or Aux/Phono can be selected).

Speakers can be set to either all-on mode (speakers A, B, and C can be used simultaneously), toggle mode (only one of speakers A, B, or C can be selected), or subwoofer mode (either A or B can be selected, and C can be added to A or B).

With its ergonomically designed, intuitive layout, wide range of functions and I/O, and PreSonus' signature superior sound quality, the Monitor Station V2 provides a versatile, convenient, and cost-effective solution for managing desktop studio monitoring systems.
