4.4.3 TALK

Talk is an abbreviation of “Talk Over”. The Talk feature is only shown for inputs when they are
set to Mic.

17. Start the Sound player playing the audio tone file again.

18. With Input 1 set to Mic 1, 2, enable its Talk switch, watching the Sound player’s VU

meter as you do so.

Enabling it causes the level for all other audio sources to drop off by 20dB, allowing Mic 1 and 2
to dominate output. This is very useful for public address announcements, which is its principal
purpose.
