Talkback Feature
When Talkback is
enabled, the “P” for
Pilot Tone indicator
will turn to a “T” for
TalkBack
The Venue receiver is capable of a “TalkBack” compat-
ibility mode which enables a transmitter with TalkBack
functionality to switch its associated receiver’s audio
outputs between 2 XLR’s on the back panel. For in-
stance, under normal transmitter use (TalkBack inac-
tive), the audio will be mapped to the appropriate XLR
depending on which Venue slot the receiver module is
installed in (just like normal use). When the transmitter
enters TalkBack active mode… that audio will suddenly
switch to a different, predetermined, XLR on the back
panel. This functionality allows the transmitter to control
audio routing, and can be very useful for situations that
require real time talent-to-director feedback.
