Studio Microphone Channel
Another type of microphone channel is a Studio
Microphone. This mic is typically located in a location
separate from the control room — perhaps a voice-over
booth, a talk studio separated by glass, or a news booth.
Logic for Studio Microphone channels is identical
to that of the Control Room Guest Microphone channel.

External Microphone Channel
This type of microphone operates identically to a
studio or CR guest microphone except that is does not
incorporate any monitor muting functions.
Line Channel
Line-level devices like CD players, tape players, etc.,
use the Line Channel profile. The Line Channel is ste-

The Phone Channel profile is used, naturally, for tele-
phone hybrid audio sources. Each Phone Channel has its
own discrete Feed-to-Source mix-minus output.
Each iQ can accommodate as many unique, automat-
ically-generated mix-minus feeds as it has faders. If the
Feed-to-Source mode is set to "Auto", (the most common
option - see Chapter 2: iQ Inputs and Outputs for the
section entitled "Source Profile Options"), phone callers
hear the output of the

Codec Channel
The Codec Channel is used for codec sources. Like
the Phone Channel, each codec source is brought up on
its own channel, and an individual Feed-to-Source (mix
minus) output is provided for each codec. Codec Chan-
