Talkback
TALKBACK (TB) BUTTON - there may be times when the control
surface operator wants to talk to one of the talent in the studio. When
the TB button in the studio monitor section is pressed, a predefined
signal, usually the operator’s mic, will “interrupt” the speaker feed that
is normally heard in the studio.
If there is a live mic in the studio which has activated the mute
feature, talkback will also be muted in the speakers.
In the center of the EFS control panel is the TB master level
control that sets the talkback output and the level of the talkback
interrupt signal.
CUE Section
The CUE master level control is located in the center section
of the EFS panel. The CUE signal is pre-fader, and is normally
used to check signals. When a channel is CUEd, its pre-fader signal will
appear in the cue speaker, and the switched meter array in the meterbridge
will show the level of the pre-fader signal.
The CUE level control determines the overall loudness of the cue
signal (normally wired to the cue speaker in the meterbridge).
Similar to the control room speakers, the cue speaker also has the
potential for feedback and should be muted (using the configuration
software—VDIP menu) whenever the control room speakers are.
Switched Meters Section
The control surface has provi-
sion for a switched meter.
To select a signal to meter,
first press the SET button, then
rotate the encoder SOURCE SE-
LECT. Available sources will be
displayed in the eight character
METER display. When the de-
sired signal is displayed, press the TAKE button. The switched meter
array will then display the signal level. If, however, after a timeout
period of 5 seconds, the TAKE button is not pressed, the array will
revert back to its previous selected program.
MXM Assign
These buttons are used to control the makeup of the four MIX-
MINUS buses. Press the SET button on any input. If that input is
assigned to feed an MXM bus, the corresponding MIX-MINUS
ASSIGN switch will be lit. Pressing a MIX-MINUS ASSIGN
switch will toggle that input’s signal into or out of the correspond-
ing MXM bus.
