Frequently Asked Questions
The built-in mic is perfectly adequate for basic communication; it’s clear but lacks the nuance of a higher-end studio mic, best for tracking vocalists and quick notes.
No, the Nero only allows selection of one monitor pair at a time; it's designed for straightforward source switching, not complex routing scenarios.
The subwoofer output is passive; it simply provides a dedicated connection for your subwoofer without any active amplification or filtering.
