25.4 Section Control Room
In the section Control Room the menu
Assign
defines the
Main Out
which is used for listening in
the studio. For this output the functions Dim, Recall, Mono, Talkback, External In and Mute FX
are automatically applied. At the unit the VOLUME knob follows this assignment.
Additionally the channel will be shifted from the Hardware
Outputs into the Control Room section, and renamed
Main
.
The same happens when assigning Main Out B or the
Phones. The original name can be displayed by the function
Names
in the View Options menu at any time.
Phones 1 to 4 will have Dim (set in Settings) and a special
routing applied when Talkback is activated. Putting them be-
side the Main Out increases the overview within the output
section greatly.
Dim.
The volume will be reduced by the amount set in the
Settings dialog (F3).
Recall.
Sets the gain value defined in the Settings dialog.
Speaker B.
Switches playback from Main Out to Main Out B.
The faders of the channels Main and Speaker B can be
ganged via Link.
Mono.
Mixes left and right channel. Useful to check for mono compatibility and phase problems.
Talkback.
A click on this button will dim all signals on the
Phones
outputs by an amount set up
in the Settings of TotalMix FX. At the same time the control room's microphone signal (source
defined in Settings) is sent to the
Phones
. The microphone level is adjusted with the channel's
input fader.
External Input.
Switches Main monitoring from the mix bus to the ste-
reo input defined in the Settings dialog (F3). The relative volume of the
stereo signal is adjusted there as well.
Mute FX.
Mutes Reverb and Echo on the Main Out, to hear the mix
without those effects.
Assign.
Allows to define the Main Out, Main Out B (Speaker B), and up
to four Phones outs.
The output for the Cue signal, which is usually
Main, can also be set to one of four
Phones
out-
puts. The setting
Cue/PFL to
also controls the PFL
monitoring.
