One-Touch Ambience; Onboard Mic - Aviom A360 User Manual

One-Touch Ambience

A common complaint amongst in-ear monitor users on stage (and headphone users in the studio) is that
they feel cut off from their surroundings, and that it's more difficult to interact with other performers
and hear audience reactions. Removing a monitoring device like custom ear monitors is somewhat time
consuming and not always practical in a performance situation. Adding an ambient mic to bring outside
sounds into the monitor mix can be a solution to these problems. The A360 offers two ways to do this:
first, with its onboard mic and second, with the ability to assign room mics to the Ambience channel that
have been set up by an engineer and made part of the network. Ambience can simply be turned on or off
as needed with a single button press.

Onboard Mic

The A360 Personal Mixer includes a built-in microphone as part of the One-Touch Ambience™ feature. The
onboard mic is designed to provide performers wearing earbuds or headphones a simple way to bring
outside sounds into their mix, making it easy to have a conversation during rehearsal, for example. The mic
has been specially optimized for speech intelligibility.
The One-Touch Ambience button turns the onboard mic on/off with a single button press. The button
lights green when the mic is on.

The onboard Ambience mic can cause feedback if the mic level and Master Volume levels are
set too high. Use caution when using the mic with an open-air speaker or stage wedge and/or
when removing earbuds or headphones after performing.
As a precaution, turn off the Ambience mic and/or lower the m
removing your earbuds or headphones.
