37. TALKBACK AND DIM PAIRING

Tip:  

,

  When engaging the 

talkback

 switch, 

dim

 is automatically engaged; generally used to keep from blasting the control room 

speakers into your 

talkback

 

feed and looking like a tubhead in front of your clients. If you’re smart enough to know why 

you should override this follow these instructions.

Benefit:  To override 

talkback

 and 

dim

 

pairing

,

 

first enter 

setup

 

mode

. (See 

setup

 

mode

 

section.) Then, press and hold the 

talkback

 

button until it turns from bright to dim. 

talkback

 and 

dim

 are now unlinked. To restore the link, enter 

setup

 

mode

 and hold 

the 

talkback

 button until it goes from dim to bright.

38. DIM LEVEL SETTING

Operation:  To customize the 

dim

 level, enter 

setup

 

mode

 by pressing and holding the 

usb

 

and

 

aes

/

spdif

 

setup buttons simultaneously 

in the 

ctrl

 

room

 

section. Press and hold the knob. The small 

amber

 LED beneath the knob will begin blinking slowly. 

Now select your 

dim

 setting by turning the knob. The farther you turn up the 

green

 LEDs, the greater the amount of 

dim

 that will be applied. In other words, more 

green

, less level- it acts as a cut. This is relative to the monitoring level, it 

is not fixed. For example, if your listening volume is at 12:00 and your dim level is set to 9:00, upon engaging 

dim

, the 

volume will drop to 9:00. If you move your listening level to 3:00 and engage dim, the volume will drop to 12:00. (

dim

 is 

relative to the regular monitoring level). To commit, press the 

volume

 knob again. If you would like to exit press either 

the 

usb

 

or

 

aes

/

spdif

 

setup button in the 

ctrl

 

room

 

section. It is now inactive on both the unit and your device.

39. REFERENCE LEVEL SETTING

section. Next, hold down the 

mono

 

7-8

 

button

 until it lights bright 

amber

. It is now 

active on both the physical unit and your virtual device. On the 

, push the volume knob twice, quickly. Now the 

small 

amber

 LED beneath the knob will flash rapidly. Select your custom reference level. To commit, press the volume 

knob in once. To exit, press either the 

usb

 

or

 

aes

/

spdif

 

setup button in the 

ctrl

 

room

 

section. To disable the 

set

 

monitor

 

reference

 

level

7-8

 

button

 until the button goes dim (like my X). To 

commit, press the volume knob again and to exit 

setup

 

mode

, press either the 

usb

 

or

 

aes

/

spdif

 

setup button in the 

ctrl

 

room

Tip:  

,

  If you want to set the reference level based on content coming from a specific input, select that input first, before entering 

setup

 

mode

. Now you may listen as you adjust.

40. FACTORY RESET  

Feature:   Reset your

mode

 

section.) Then press and hold the 

line

 

out
