IMX644 Manager Owner’s Manual 21

Here you can edit settings for functions such as Priority Ducker, Music Override, and Feedback Suppressor.

• Priority Ducker Key Source Select

When a signal is applied to the specified MONO INPUT channel, the level of all STEREO INPUT signals assigned to the same

output are reduced to allow announcements made via the MONO INPUT channel to stand out clearly from background music or

other program material, for example. When input to the specified MONO INPUT channel ceases, the level of the other “ducked”

channels returns to normal.

1[MONO 1]–[MONO 6] check boxes

These turn on/off the Priority Ducker function for each MONO INPUT channel. These check boxes are linked with the [PRI-

ORITY] buttons of the INPUT screen. The default setting is OFF for all channels.

NOTE

•If this is turned on for more than one MONO INPUT channel, an audio signal being input to any MONO INPUT channel for which this

setting is turned on will reduce the volume from the STEREO INPUT channel that is being input to the same output channel.

2Mute Level

This specifies the amount of attenuation applied to the STEREO INPUT channel by the Priority Ducker function.

3Release Time

This specifies the time from when the audio signal disappears from the MONO INPUT channel until the audio signal of the

STEREO INPUT channel returns to its original volume. If the audio signal of the STEREO INPUT channel prematurely

returns to its original volume during breathing spaces or between words, increase the Release Time so that the STEREO

INPUT audio signal does not come back inappropriately.

• Music Override Key Source Select

When a signal is applied to the specified STEREO INPUT channel all other STEREO INPUT channels assigned to the same output

are automatically faded out and muted. When input to the specified STEREO INPUT channel ceases, the level of the other muted

channels fades in and returns to normal.
