Aux Output (HP1 Balanced Mono Output)
The
¼
” (6.5mm) stereo
HEADPHONE
output on the TLR300B rack unit codec
can also be used as a balanced mono
output. To change the functionality of the
output, go to the
Outputs
tab in the
Profile
Editor
in
Tool
Box
software. In this menu
there is an option that can be ‘checked’
called
HP Mono Balanced Output
.
Checking this box (as displayed in the
right-hand image) will turn the stereo
HEADPHONE
output into a balanced
mono output.
When you have selected this option, you
can view the settings for what is being sent
to the
Aux Output (HP1 Balanced Mono)
output in the
View Matrix
tab in the
Profile Editor
. If you have purchased the ‘Profile and Router’ (
Matrix Editor
)
option from
T
ieline
, you can also copy, adapt and save the default matrices to suit
your individual broadcast requirements. For more information on the manual
default matrix settings for this output, please see the General Attributes of
Manual Default Profiles section in this reference manual.
32.3.
Mix (Send/Return) Pan Matrix
The
BALANCE
knobs on
T
ieline
codecs control the
balance between the
SEND & RETURN
audio sent to
the
codec
headphone outputs.
The
Mix
(Send/Return) Pan Matrix
provides the flexibility of
selecting which sources are allocated to
SEND
and
RETURN
.
As shown in the right-hand image, sources are
selected by ‘checking’ the matrix boxes. The balance
between how much level you receive from either the
SEND
or
RETURN
matrix sources is then controlled
by the
BALANCE
knob. This control does not affect
the level of the transmitted or received program
audio. It only controls the monitoring of these sources in the headphones.
The example shown is the default
Mix (Send/Return) Pan Matrix
setting in an
i
-
Mix
G
3
codec. It many situations it is likely that the codec decoders will be
providing return audio from a studio codec, so this example would allow the
commentators to adjust the balance between the program audio at the venue
codec (provided by
Inputs 1 - 5
and the
Phone Aux
input) and an incoming
return audio foldback or IFB feed provided by
Decoders 1 & 2.
