164 Chapter 13—Monitoring & Talkback
DM2000 Version 2—Owner’s Manual
The Slate function distributes the Talkback mic signal to all Bus Outs, Matrix Sends, and the
Stereo Out.
The [SLATE] button has two modes of operation: If it’s pressed once (i.e.,
for less than 300 ms), the Slate function is turned on and remains on when
the button is released. This is Latched mode. If it’s pressed and held for
longer, the Slate function is turned on, but turns off when the button is
released. This is Unlatched mode. The [SLATE] button indicator flashes
while the Slate function is active.

2Use the cursor buttons to select the parameters, and use the Parameter
wheel, INC/DEC buttons, and [ENTER] button to set them.

Omni Outputs.
STUDIO MONITOR: This allows you to select the Talkback mic signal as the Studio
Monitor source.
TALKBACK DIMMER LEVEL: When the Talkback function is active, this determines the
amount of attenuation applied to sound sources assigned to the Studio Monitors and

nal source. Use the check box to turn this option on and off, and use the number parameter

with the Talkback mic signal. Turn down the TALKBACK LEVEL if you do not want to use
