Choose what plays in the headphones

Step by step

In ⚙ Settings › Audio, on the Headphones (monitoring) row, choose the device the headphones are plugged into.
Near the transition buttons, at 🎧, choose PVW, PGM or L and R. The H key also switches.
In the mixer, next to 🎧, choose Master or an output.

PVW, PGM or L and R

Button	What you hear
PVW	Preview, the next input. Headphones only: it does not go on air.
PGM	What goes on air.
L and R	Both: Preview in the left ear and PGM in the right.

Master or an output

In the mixer, the list next to 🎧 chooses which mix plays on the PGM side of the headphones: the Master or one of the outputs A–E that is turned on. Use it to check the mix that goes somewhere else, like the stage monitor. This does not change what goes on air.

Headphone volume

On the Master strip, the knob next to PHONES changes the Master volume in the headphones. It applies only on this computer and does not change what goes on air. Double-click it to go back to 100.

Questions

Why can't I hear anything in the headphones?

Check that the right device is chosen in ⚙ Settings › Audio, on the Headphones (monitoring) row. The green dot and the word “playing” show it is working.
