The built in mic (above the main mix faders) allows you to converse with artists remotely. Most important controls are the VOLUME (P99) and PHONES & STUDIO button (S99, see fig. 6.7). It is possible to route the talkback mic to any of the following: aux 1, aux 2, subgroups, and phones and studio (S96 to S99).

Complex headphone or stage monitoring networks could be constructed where HP1, HP2, aux 1 (pre), aux 2 (pre) and one or more subgroups all feed separate monitor mixes. (See section 16.2 “Very tricky headphones”).

However, since the four pushbuttons are non-latching it might drive you crazy. If you are using many headphone feeds, it’s possible you will find it easier to patch a separate microphone for talkback straight into a channel, where it can be routed pretty much anywhere.

Engaging TALKBACK (S99) dims the control room (monitors, not lights you fool) by -20 dB to restrict the possibility of feedback. All other talkback routes are unaffected.
