i listen to the mic along with whe main mix going out to let me know if i left a hot mic from forgetting to click its button after announcements or that its actually on while making them. With a radio situation there's no live sound to go by. The direct monitor on the umc22 you mentioned gives me the dry mic but not controlled my its on off button in mixx. Listening one the 4a's out in the back of the panel gives me the mix along with the mic for that purpose but leaves out being able to preview or cue songs off air using the headphone buttons. The preference to send the mic to master or direct used to send it to to mix side of the headphone mix fader for the headphone out before the booth out was added.

My suggestion would be to have the mic (when selected in preference) tied to the booth signal going to the mix side of the headphone mix fader. if the preference is set to both master and booth for the mic monitor mode preference you'll hear the mic on the headphones with the mix if you set the preference to master or direct monitor you'll just hear the mix from the booth out without the mic
