Talkback : If a Talkback bus was created in Nuendo’s VST Devices Studio tab, pressing
the MC’s Talkback button enables the talkback function in the Nuendo Control Room
Mixer. The Talkback Mic Level adjustments on the Touchscreen do not function with
Nuendo’s Control Room Mixer at this time.
Monitor Setup
Figure 11-7 Monitor Touchscreen
The Monitor Setup key opens the Monitor Touchscreen, which controls the source for
each Studio feed. Each Studio feed has its own tab (Monitor A–D), and each tab lists the
possible sources (External Input, Main, and Aux busses). To select a source for a Studio
bus, touch the tab of the desired bus then touch the source to assign; source selections
intercancel.
11.3.4 Talkback
Once the Talkback bus is set up, pressing the MC’s Talkback button automatically dims
all output bus levels and routes the Talkback bus output to all output busses with TE
enabled in the Nuendo Control Room Mixer (green when enabled). To utilize the MC’s
built-in talkback mic, connect the XLR talkback mic output on the rear panel to an in-
put on your Nuendo workstation’s hardware (ASIO sound card), then select that input
as the source for the Talkback bus ( Device Port in the Studio tab of the VST Devices
window). The MC’s built-in talkback mic is a condenser microphone and requires 48-V
phantom power.
NOTE: The rear panel Foot Switch jack can be used to toggle Talkback on/off (see
page 6).
