allen & heath xone:32 question

i'm looking to upgrade from my pio djm300 sometime soon and the xone:32 is at the head of the pack right now. i do have one concern however. on the djm300 i can select which channel goes into the headphones. can i do that on the xone too, or is it just master? looking at pics of the xone i don't see any way to select channels.

My guess is the Bal knob controls the volume in the headphones. There are also gain knobs behind the mixer which lowers volume in the headphones too, but the gains affect the master out as well.

The Xone is a great mixer, but when it comes to this particular model, I feel that you should look at other mixers, like the Denon DN-X1500, DJM-500 or Tascam X-9. They offer alot more, and are just a bit more than the Xone.

That doesn't answer the question at all

The "cue" button above each level meter sends that channel to the headphones.

I was looking for those buttons, but didnt see them when I looked at the picture the first time, I was expecting to see buttons on this Xone like there are on the higher end models.

Yeah they're not exactly obvious.

Personally I don't use the cue buttons on the 62/464, it's all about using the aux loop to cue
