Monitoring & Talkback
The monitoring and talkback functions are defined by the configuration. Please refer to your system
specification for more details.
6.12.1 PFL & AFL
Up to 5 independent listen buses (PFL or AFL) can be defined by the configuration. This is particularly useful
when working with multiple operating stations, as each station can feed a different output.
Each bus can feed a dedicated output, or be switched automatically to your speakers or headphones whenever
a PFL (or AFL) is active. These options are defined by the configuration.
PFL
(or
AFL
) is usually available on one of the fader strip MF Keys. The operation will vary depending on the
mode selected in the
menu. Below is a description of the default mode, PFL SUM.
Ø
PFL SUM operation
Multiple
PFL
s can be active to listen to a number of sources:
·
On a closed fader, press
PFL
to route the source onto the stereo PFL bus; the
PFL
automatically
cancels when you open the fader.
·
On an open fader, press
PFL
to put the channel into "PFL Prepare". Nothing happens until you close the
fader; once the fader is closed,
PFL
becomes active.
Ø
PFL Clear
One of the MF Keys on the Central Module is usually programmed for
PFL Clear
. This provides a handy way of
cancelling all active PFLs across the console.
