Talkback Switch
The Talkback switch activates the Talkback mi-
crophone. The Talkback switch lights to indi-
cate that Talkback is active. Talkback signal is
summed with the Cue inputs and also sent to
the Slate output. For more information on Talk-
back signal routing, see “Monitor Section” on
page 23.
Talkback level is set with the Talkback controls
in the Monitor section. See “Talkback Level
Knob and Switch” on page 63.
You can set Talkback to stay on only when held,
or to latch on if rapidly double-pressed. See
“Talkback Latching” on page 116.
You can set the Talkback and Listen micro-
phones to turn on automatically when the
Pro Tools Transport is stopped, and turn off
when the Pro Tools Transport is running. See
“Auto Talkback” on page 120.
In addition to the Talkback switch, you can con-
trol Talkback with a footswitch connected to
C|24. See “Footswitch Connectors” on page 11
and “Footswitch Function and Polarity” on
page 117.
