Introducing Source-Talkback
This article is part of the Source-Talkback User Guide
Source-Talkback is a plug-in pair designed to enable talkback functionality without requiring external hardware, using a single keyboard stroke for toggle and latch. Simply place the Talkback plug-ins on your Aux track before your talkback input, and on your Master fader. Hold down the '\' key for toggle, or shift+\ for latch, and enable Auto-On to open and close automatically during transport start and stop. Talkback allows for an engineer to talk to talent either over Source-Connect and/or in a local booth while not getting feedback through the monitoring speakers. Source-Talkback is also compatible with any remote connection method, for example ISDN, regardless of where you get your signal from.
Source-Talkback features system-wide recognition, so you don’t need to have either of the plug-in windows open, or even to have Pro Tools be the front-most application. Read on for details usage instructions, and how to place Source- Talkback into your Pro Tools session.
