Sidechain Pre
▪
Configuration switch 4-9
▪
LED labelled PRE lights up green, located above the SIDECHAIN level controls
Commentators A and B monitor their own microphone signal via the SIDECHAIN level control. The
SIDECHAIN signal is normally present only, when either ON AIR button or TALK button are active, thus
giving a definite feedback, if a commentator is active to the “outside world” or not.
In SIDECHAIN PRE mode the SIDECHAIN signal is always present.
Note:
SIDECHAIN PRE does not substitute CONFERENCE function. SIDECHAIN PRE is a configuration
feature, while CONFERENCE is operated during normal use on the front panel. Furthermore
CONFERENCE additionally affects the monitoring of the co-commentator.

Link Program A / Link Program B
▪
Configuration switch 4-10 for commentator A
▪
Configuration switch 4-11 for commentator B
Note:
Typically you will use this feature when linking your AIRCOM to external components. Find more
information about link features in chapter 7.
Audio inputs AUX IN A and AUX IN B are located at the Sub-D connector on the rear panel.
In case REMOTE/LINK mode (refer to chapter 7) is selected, audio signals fed into these inputs will
substitute the program input signal. Unlike the program signal, AUX IN signals are fed post PROGRAM
level control. So PROGRAM level control in this case has no effect on the monitoring volume.
Considering the L-R MONITORING OPTIONS for the program input (configuration banks 2 and 3) there
are more options available:
Commentator A, configuration switch 4-10 ON-position, LINK/REMOTE selected
2-1 2-2 headphones
