Operating the MTLC-16

Details

This application is most commonly used for muting student instruments while the teacher is demonstrating. However, selected student instruments can be un-muted (while the others remain muted) by pressing the student’s number but- ton.

All students hear: the teachers instrument and microphone, and/or an external audio source (if “Tape In” or “Aux In” is depressed.)

The teacher hears: his or her own instrument and microphone, and/or an external audio source (if “Tape In” or “Aux In” is depressed.)

Classroom Speaker Monitoring

Purpose

Allows the MTLC-16 to function without headphones for demonstration purposes.

Procedure

A)Be sure an external audio monitoring system (preferably stereo) is connected to the “Mon. Out” jacks on the back of the MTLC-16 as described in the “Music Lab Installation Guide.”

B)Set the external audio monitoring system at a comfortable listening level.

C)Select student(s), pair(s), group(s), or an external audio source (i.e. “Tape In” or “Aux In”) to be broadcast to the class by following the instructions in sections: “Single and Multiple Student Monitoring and Communication,” “Group Monitoring and Communication,” “Pairs (Duet-Style) Monitoring and Communication,” “Class Communication,” “Student Broadcasting,” and/or “External Audio Broadcasting.”

D)Set the “Tape/Aux In,” “Mic,” and/or “Inst” sliders at comfortable listening levels. Sliding the sliders towards the top of the MTLC-16 increases the listening level and sliding the sliders towards the bottom of the MTLC-16 decreases the listening level.

E)While playing a selected instrument(s) and/or speaking into the microphone(s) being broadcast to the class, set the “Mon Out” slider at a satisfactory listening level. Sliding the slider towards the top of the MTLC-16 increases the listening level and sliding the slider towards the bottom of the MTLC-16 decreases the listening level.

F)Adjust the audio monitoring system if needed.

Details

This application is most commonly used for broadcasting a selected student, pair, or group to the class via external audio monitors. However, the teacher can broadcast several students, pairs, or groups simultaneously by selecting sev- eral student number buttons or “Group Comm” buttons.
