Master Section
(FROM) SUB
This is a stereo switch bringing the
Sub output into the CRM/phones
output. It will override the 'from air'
and other selected sources when
selected.
CUE BALANCE
The CUE balance pot continuously
adjusts the balance between the
stereo CUE signal and the stereo
input selection made with the
switches described above.
(AUTO)CUE
This LED indicates that both CRM
outputs are automatically
connected to a selected CUE
switch in stereo. When this LED is
not active the CRM will monitor the
main program outputs. The CUE
signal will always be present at the
CUE output jack when
programmed.
PHONES LEVEL
This controls the overall level of the
stereo headphones output.
A headphone socket is conveniently placed just beneath the armrest.
CRM
The control room monitor controls the outgoing level to the control room monitors. The level is +6dBu on a
cinch connector. A mute LED indicates when the CRM is muted. This is the case when the Airlab is used
as "self op" mixer. The DJ channel forces the CRM to mute when the Microphone is active in the control
room itself. This is software configurable.
TALKBACK
This section houses most of the controls needed to communicate with every connected source to the
Airlab. Communication is one of the most important parts of a broadcast, inside and outside the console.
We have done a great deal of thought concerning this part of the console.
The talk back microphone is a built in Electret microphone with its associated level control. The mic-amp is
protected against clipping.
The talk back switches are momentary so leaving talk back mics open is a thing of the past. The talk back
mic can be assigned to several outputs at the same time when more than one switch is activated. The
Studio, Guest and Announcer outputs are driven post their volume controls, so communication is always
possible. Talk back to the SUB output is possible with the talk back switch positioned in the SUB section of
the master.
