Window Window
INPUT SECTION
The Input section of the Talkback channel patches to any hardware or software I/O that’s assigned to the mixer. It can control
preamp analog level, 48v, and phase in the same manner as Input channels. The section includes input meters and peak value
indicators, as well as input trim controls, assigned filter adjustment, and delay control.
PLUGINS RACK
The Talkback channel accepts up to eight plugins. There is no Main Control section on this Channel page, so plugins are
controlled directly on the plugin pane. Refer to the Channel > Rack section to learn more about using the plugins rack.
TALKBACK SOURCE
The Talkback buss can be routed to any available I/O. It can also be routed to mixer busses, including Main outs. This grid is
used to determine which busses the Talkback channel is patched to. If All is selected, Talkback is patched to every buss.
TALKBACK ROUTING PRESETS
Up to eight Talkback routing configurations can be saved as presets.
a. Select a preset button.
b. Configure Talkback buss assignments.
c. Click Save.
The Clear button removes all patches visible on the grid. It does not affect saved presets.
OUTPUT SECTION
The Output section of the Talkback page is identical to that of the Cue channel. Select Open List and add output
assignments. A fader Section includes fader, pan/balance/rotate control, and mute, as well as direct output assignments. For
details, please refer to the Channel Output section (earlier in this chapter).
TALK BUTTON (ON THE TOP BAR)
Talkback is activated with the non-latching Talk switch. It must be held open to talk. When Talkback is On,
the top part of the button is blue. Click the Gear icon below TALK to directly access the Cue channel page
from any window.
Talkback On/Off can also be mapped to a control surface or assigned to user-assignable keys, which are set
up in the U/I Settings window (Setup > U/I Settings > User-Assignable Keys).
USING TALKBACK TO DISTRIBUTE A TEST SIGNAL
Since Talkback can be sent to any I/O or buss, it is a convenient way to broadcast a reference tone or other test signal. Insert
a signal generator in the Talkback plugins rack. This signal will be distributed to all selected busses and I/Os.
