MODEL 205
ANNOUNCER’S CONSOLE
Headphone Audio Sources and Routing
STcontroller allows selection from among
five headphone audio source and routing
modes. Each mode is distinct and careful
selection will help optimize the Model 205’s
operation for a range of applications.
Mode 1 – Ch1L/Ch2R/SidetoneLR
Mode 1 is provided for on-air applications
where two independent audio sources
need to be routed separately to the two
headphone output channels. Dante input
(receiver) channel 1 will be routed to the
left headphone output channel and pot A
will adjust its level. Dante input (receiver)
channel 2 will be routed to the right head-
phone output channel and pot B will adjust
its level. Pot C will adjust the level of the
sidetone audio as it is sent to both the left
and right headphone output channels.
Mode 2 – Ch1LCh2R/BalanceLR/Side-
toneLR
Mode 2 is provided for stereo applications
that could include live music events that are
distributed via streaming audio or by way
of an over-the-air broadcast. In these appli-
cations it’s typical to want the user to have
a single potentiometer to simultaneously
adjust the level of a stereo pair while
a separate potentiometer is used to adjust
the left/right level balance.
When set for mode 2 Dante input chan-
nel 1 will be routed to the left headphone
output channel and Dante input channel 2
will be routed to the right headphone output
channel. Pot A will adjust the overall level
of both headphone output channels. Pot B
will adjust the level balance between the left
and right output channels. Pot C will adjust
the level of the sidetone audio as it is sent
to both the left and right headphone output
channels.
Mode 3 – Ch1LCh2R/Ch3LCh4R/Side-
toneLR
Mode 3 can be useful in applications
where two stereo signals need to be
provided to the user on the left and right
headphone output channels. In this mode
Dante input channels 1 and 2 are routed
to the left and right channels of the head-
phone output. Pot A adjusts the level of
this stereo pair. Dante input channels 3
and 4 are also routed to the left and right
channels of the headphone output. Pot B
adjusts the level of this stereo pair as it is
sent to the headphone output channels.
Pot C will adjust the level of the sidetone
audio as it is sent to both the left and right
headphone output channels.
Mode 4 – Ch1L/Ch2R/Ch3LCh4R
Mode 4 is very similar to mode 1 except
instead of providing sidetone another
stereo pair can be routed to the left and
right headphone output channels. Dante
input channel 1 is routed to the left chan-
nel of the headphone output. Pot A adjusts
its level. Dante input channel 2 is routed
to the right headphone output channel and
pot B adjusts its level. A stereo pair can
enter the Model 205 by way of Dante input
channels 3 and 4. These signals, whose
level is adjusted using the pot C, are sent
to the left and right channels of the head-
phone output.
Mode 5 – Ch1LR/Ch2LR/Ch3LCh4R
Model 5 is a unique variation where two
monaural signals can be routed to both
the left and right headphone output chan-
nels while a stereo input source is routed
in stereo to the headphone output chan-
nels. Dante input channel 1 will be routed
to both the left and right channels of the
headphone output. Its level is controlled
by pot A. Dante input channel 2 will also
