2.1.2.6. Talkback.
Talk-back section allows the console operator to communicate directly with the studio and
remote guests (lines).
The default intercom channels for the AEQ CAPITOL are established between the control room
and the studio with separate channels for monitors and headphones. You can set additional
channels of intercom to facilitate communications. For example, talk-back can be established
between studio or control to the different audio returns to hybrids or audio-codecs. The talk-
back microphone can also be used as an auto-control microphone if so defined.
The talk-back section of the control surface consists of 4 key buttons immediately beneath the
Studio and Control sections and the encoder “LEVEL” (Talkback Level) of the Studio monitoring
section.
