Broadcast Host™
Analog Desktop Digital Hybrid
Setting Up
1. Connect the supplied RJ-11 phone line cable between the jack marked
<Line> and your wall jack. Be sure this jack supports standard single line
analog telephone operation.
2. Connect a pair of headphones to the front of the Broadcast Host or mixer.
3. There are 2 ways to set up the audio equipment for your Broadcast Host:
A. One Mic/Headphone (No Mixer): See Figure 6a.
1. Connect a dynamic microphone cable to the <Send 1> jack on the
Broadcast Host. Be sure to set the Broadcast Host <Mic/Line>
switch to the <Mic> position.
2. Connect a stereo cable from the mini-jack Stereo Out on the
Broadcast Host to the <Line In> on your computer sound card or
other recording equipment that has a stereo input.
B. Two or more Inputs/Outputs (Mix-Minus Caller): See Figure 7a.
A mix-minus signal is an audio signal that contains a mix of your local
microphones plus any other audio, minus the Caller’s own voice.
Sending the Caller’s audio back to the Broadcast Host will cause an
echo, or feedback.
1. Connect <Caller> to any Line Level input on mixer.
2. Connect Aux (or FX) Send on mixer to <Send 1> on
Broadcast Host. Set the Broadcast Host <Mic/Line> switch
to the <Line> position.
4. Connect the supplied DC power supply to the back of the Broadcast Host
and then to an AC power outlet.
Your Broadcast Host is now ready to take calls. You may want to connect an
auxiliary telephone to the Broadcast Host <Phone> jack so you can dial out and
set up calls, or use the <Auto-Answer> feature to answer incoming calls.
Place a test call to a quiet location. Set the <Send> level control so that while
you are speaking into the microphone, the Send LEDs on the hybrid light the -20
dB green LED consistently and flash the -9 dB green LED. If you flash the -3 dB
red LED, lower the level. Set the <Caller> control for good recording level of the
caller audio at the output jack.
