Take it Easy
We’ve built a lot of flexibility into the Vx system to support all the sophisticated things you might want to do. But you don’t
have to use all the fancy-pants stuff when you don’t need it and a simpler subset will do.
In the simplest case, when you are a talent supported by a producer, you could just use the NEXT and DROP buttons. You press
the NEXT button to take calls in the sequence determined by your producer and you press the DROP button when you are
finished with your last call and you want to stop taking more.
One step up would have you pressing the Line buttons to select the calls you want, one at a time. Again, when you are finished
taking calls, you would press DROP. You could use the left column Line buttons to talk with callers on the handset.
At the next level, you would use either the Lock function or the dual hybrid capability to take calls.
One recommended application for the dual hybrid function is the “expert caller” scenario where you are
interviewing an expert caller (a doctor and so forth) and you would like to do some Q&A with other callers.
Using the right line column, simply lock the expert on Hybrid 2 and use the left column or the Next button
to take the other calls. The expert caller will never be dropped by accident and will never hear the sync
burst when new calls are taken.
