The Talkback function distributes the Talkback mic signal to the Studio Monitor Outs and
any Slot or Omni Outputs specified on the Talkback Setup page.
The TALKBACK LEVEL control sets the level of the built-in talkback micro-
phone.
The [TALKBACK] button has two modes of operation: If it’s pressed once
(i.e., for less than 300 ms), the Talkback function is turned on and remains on
when the button is released. This is Latched mode (this mode can be disabled
on the Talkback Setup page). If it’s pressed and held for longer, the Talkback
function is turned on, but turns off when the button is released. This is
Unlatched mode. The [TALKBACK] button indicator flashes while the Talk-
back function is active.
