HDS-16/HRM-16 HEADPHONE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
16’s. Talkback is always available from the mix
console and the level can be adjusted with the
HRM-16’s TALKBACK VOLUME control.
There are two talkback modes designed for
live and studio situations:
LIVE/STAGE MODE (DEFAULT)
This mode establishes communication from the
HDS-16 to all HRM-16’s but not between them.
Each HRM-16 user must depress their TALK
button or switch to speak with the HDS-16 but
can always receive from it. The HRM-16 users
will not hear other HRM-16 users or their own
voice. This is useful for live situations where
a single HRM-16 user’s communication with
the mix engineer does not require interaction
between musicians. Live/Stage was selected
as the default mode to eliminate feedback from
adjacent stage monitors.
STUDIO MODE
This mode establishes communication among
all HRM-16’s and the HDS-16 much like an
intercom system. Any HRM-16 user with their
TALK button depressed can speak to all HRM-
16’s and the HDS-16. Each person will also
hear their own voice.This mode is useful to
enable discussion be tween the musicians and
mix engineer between takes.
