About the Talkback Inputs
The system supports two talkback inputs which can be used to talk to an individual mix bus or all buses (via the
SLATE
button). For each mix, you can determine whether talkback is enabled and which input will be used (TB1 or TB2), see
. These assignments are stored and recalled by snapshots, allowing you to store and recall
different talkback configurations for each session.
The physical inputs and their level trims are specified under
STUDIO SETUP -> Inputs & Outputs
, and are stored and
recalled by presets. They can use any analog or AES input, connected via the MPIO or SubD-25 connector. Analog input 1 is
reserved for talkback and is named accordingly within the software. If TB2 is assigned to a different physical input, then
you will be able to talk from different positions (e.g. from a sound engineer or producer).

LISTENING “IN” TO THE STUDIO
Listen-back can be used to return talkback from a particular studio location – for example, to “listen back” to the conductor’s
microphone during a recording session. If the listen-back inputs are enabled in
STUDIO SETUP -> Inputs & Outputs
, then the
relevant
LISTEN
buttons appear in the OUTPUTS & TALKS area:
Click on
LISTEN 1
or
LISTEN 2
to monitor the listen-back input on the selected speaker set.
Click again to cancel the listen-back.
About the Listen-back Inputs
The system supports two listen-back inputs which you can listen to on either the selected speaker set (via the
LISTEN
buttons in the OUTPUTS & TALKS area), or on the Headphones (via the Headphones monitor source selector).
The physical inputs and their level trims are specified under
STUDIO SETUP -> Inputs & Outputs
, and are stored and
recalled by presets. They can use any analog or AES input, connected via the MPIO or SubD-25 connector. Analog input 2 is
reserved for listen-back and is named accordingly within the software.

SWITCHING THE AES 1-8 INSERT
If the “AES 1-8 Insert” option is enabled in the
STUDIO SETUP -> Inputs & Outputs
, then you will see an AES INSERT
ON
/OFF
button and an
INS
indicator beside some sources – in our example, beside
Main
and
Alternate St
.
