6.16 diamond - Talkback
The
TB
or
Talk
keys can be used to talk to a source or monitor output. The number of talkback keys, and their operation, is
determined by the configuration. The configuration possibilities are explained later. For now, it is useful to know that:
Up to 8 talkback sources can be configured (to support more than one talkback mic).
A central rotary control can be configured to adjust talkback level.
The operation of the talkback keys can be either momentary or latching.
While talkback is active, the main signal can be either dimmed or muted.
The rest of this topic describes how talkback is defined in the standard configuration. The operation may vary if the
configuration is customized.

1. Talk to Source
