talkback features
The TALKBACK system provides facilities for assigning an external signal
(usually the console operator's microphone) to any of the console's out-
puts.
Other signals can be routed through the TALKBACK system including an
external tone oscillator or the built-in PINK NOISE generator.
talkback level
This control sets the level that appears at any of the outputs with
their respective TALK TO switches engaged. It also governs the audio level
at the TALKBACK output XLR connector on the rear-panel.
pink noise
The TALKBACK in-connector is disabled and PINK NOISE is sent though
the TALKBACK system.
Talk On
This switch must be activated for the TALKBACK system to operate.
There are two-ways to activate it:
1 Momentary—Depressing the button for more than 1/2 of a second
will cause it to act as a momentary switch.When the button is released,
the
TALKBACK section will be shut-off.
2 On / Off — A quick tap on the button (less than 1/2 second) will cause
the switch to electronically change its state from on-to-off or from off-to-on.
left/right/center —LCR TO OUTPUTS
This feature is useful for monitoring the console when creating an LCR
mix. Local monitoring is usually done with two speakers.The LCR to out-
puts feature combines the center (or mono) signal with the left and right
signals, creating a phantom center channel.This feature affects the
ALT OUT
section, the MONITOR OUT section, the HEARING ASSIST output and the head-
phone feed.
Center (mono) channel is not included in the MONITOR paths.
The center (or mono) channel is combined with left and right MON -
ITOR outputs.This makes it possible to hear the center channel without a
designated speaker.
The Talk Back system
is commonly used for
testing the console's
output section.
