AEQ FORUM
Digital audio mixer for broadcast applications
90
The available options in the snapshots advanced configuration menu, described from left to
right and top to bottom, are:
• “Label”: alphanumeric label for the snapshot memory.
• “Faders”: twelve drop-down menus allow you to assign an input audio channel that
corresponds to one of the physical faders of AEQ FORUM mixing console. The faders
are numbered, from left to right, 1 through12. The number of faders to configure
depends on the number of 4 faders modules (FRCH) installed on the control surface (1,
2 or 3 FRCH modules can be installed, providing then with a maximum of 4, 8 or 12
channels).
• “Talkback MIC”: allows you to configure the operation of the microphone input present
in the common I/O’s section at the rear panel of the AEQ FORUM. When “Self-Control”
checkbox is not activated, that input is configured only as an orders microphone toward
studio or return for any open communication lines (this is a typical configuration for AEQ
FORUM when installed in a Studio/Control configuration). When “Self-Control”
checkbox is activated, that input is configured as autocontrol microphone (it
simultaneously works as orders microphone), so the host of the radio program is also
the operator of the mixing console (this is a typical configuration when the Studio and
Control areas of the radio station are in the same room). Only when “Self-Control”
checkbox is activated you can assign the talkback mic to a fader (when it’s not
activated, the mic will not appear in the channels list).
• “Studio”: section where you can configure the initial activation of one or several keys to
send signal to monitor and headphones placed
under the display of the studio
monitoring section. The available options are “Program”, “Audition”, “Cue” and “Sel”
(when section is configured in “Exclusive” mode, you can activate only one key: see
section 4.2.4.1 of this manual). “Sel Input” and “Sel Out” drop-down menus allows you
to select a single input or output to associate it initially with the “SEL” monitoring key
(that selection can be modify later by means of “HP/SOURCE” encoder).
