i read thru the manaul but cant get a clear answer...could i use the monitor line outs AND the XLR outs simultaneously?

i wanna hook up my ns-10s and my event trl8's to my 4k and be able to A/B monitor thru them without having to repatch cables everytime i need to hear what my mix sounds like thru each set of monitors...thanks ALOT in advance

You can but you may have some distortion I tried it with my digi setup. The better way is to run your 4k into a mackie 1202 mixer or soundcard like digi 002 and connect your speaker their to a/b your mixes. If you don`t have a mixer but the 8 outs setup you can use main outs plus 1/2 as a stereo pair. The circuit isn`t made to split sorry. :D
