make a CD player available on any fader, so you'd
check the boxes for all faders. Some sources – es-
pecially air monitors – you might wish to prevent
from ever being assigned to a fader, so you would
uncheck the boxes for all faders. The number of fad-
er checkboxes show will vary depending upon the
number of faders installed in your Element.

About Mics and Headphone Feeds: Element
provides you with several headphone options,
all selectable from Element's Monitor Mod-
ule. The Monitor 1 (control room) headphone
output provides a feed intended for the Host
(board-op's) mic position and includes the abil-
ity to monitor the Preview bus in headphones.
Guests can talk to the host directly using the
Talkback keys on their remote control panels.
The Monitor 2 headphone output sends au-
dio to talent and guest mic positions. Talent
positions include a talkback channel that the
host or board op can use to communicate us-
ing the Talk To Monitor 2 function (guest
positions do not have this Talkback channel).
An individual headphone feed can also be con-
structed to associate a dedicated headphone
channel with a specific mic. This allows the
board op to send individual, targeted talkback
to a specific individual (using the Talkback
keys) without other talent or guests hearing.
