Using the M-2600

The M-2600

II incorporates a flexible talkback system for communication purposes.

The MIC control governs the output level of the built-in talkback microphone. The three

Talkback Assign switches enable you to use the system to best suit your needs.

1) SLATE:

This sends the talkback signal to all eight Group busses at once; press

and hold this button when you want to place a memo on the recorder such as "Take

3," etc.

2) AUX: This sends the talkback signal to all AUX busses, enabling you to

communicate with the talent wearing headphones that are fed by any of the AUX

sends

3) TB:

Press and hold this switch to send the talkback signal to the STUDIO Output

- even if the STUDIO ON switch is disengaged or the STUDIO LEVEL is down

"Zeroing" the M-2600

"Zeroing" the mixer is frequently performed at the start of a new project as a

cautionary measure to ensure the engineer that the signal being monitored is "flat" as

opposed to the inclusion of any unwanted EQ, and free of any external signal

processing. This is also done to prevent damaging connected components such as

amplifiers and speakers by accidentally feeding too much signal.

1) Bring all the faders down.

2) Set the level of all controls, such as TRIM, CUE/AUX SEND, CUE/AUX SEND

MASTER, CR, SOLO, and STUDIO to their full counter-clockwise position.

3) Set all EQ and PAN controls to the center position.

4) Make certain all switches, such as Channel Assign, MON and FLIP are in the "up"

(or "off") position.

5) Ensure that phantom power is disabled, except for the module you need to connect

the condenser mic to.
