STUDIO MONITOR FOLDBACK:
The AUX output configuration screen in the main menu.
The signal that is fed to the loudspeakers in the studio room. This signal can be adapted depending
on your way of working. In some radio studio’s (or TV) people don’t use headphones. With an AUX
you can make a mix of all post fade signals EXCEPT the studio microphones. The signal can be loud if
no microphones are in use and dimmed upon opening of one of the studio microphones. The amount
of dimming can be adjusted in the D4. Also this signal is replaced by a TalkBack signal upon pushing
the TB button.
As the D4 mixing desk can be used in a true “split” mode e.g. an automated program is playing on air
and at the same time making a recording you have to be able to select which signals must be present
in the CLEANFEED, FOLDBACK or RETURN. That is why an post fade AUX is used for this purpose and
you have to open up the AUX volume controls of ALL channels that must be present in this mix en
close the others.
