[QUOTE="Chris Clark, post: 72511, member: 2763"] Re: Talkback to P16m With floor monitors you still have to assign the talkback to one the mix busses that are going to those monitors, don't you? Couldn't you send the talkback to any mix bus that is also being sent to the P16?, if you in fact end up needing all 16 sends to the P16's? I see your point that a dedicated "All P16" send type of thing would be prudent, but if I'm understanding the protocols correctly the Ultranet specifically uses 16 channels in its data, so you have three options in this case: [LIST] [*]Rewrite the Ultranet protocol as 17 channels; with the first 16 assignable on the P16M as standard, and the 17th direct and un-adjustable. [*]Change the name to "P15M" and only allow 15 channels, using the 16th channel in the Ultranet protocol as that direct/un-adjustable talkback feed, which would be the same as assigning talkback to the 16th channel anyway and making sure everyone has that feed on. [*]Have the console override all 16 P16 sends (to be safe, in case some people don't have all the channels on) when talkback is pushed, leading to anywhere from 1 to 16 channels on the P16 all changing to the same audio and it being combined and amplified to an ear shattering volume when someone has 14 of those 16 channels selected and turned up. [/LIST] I think John's suggestion is perfectly reasonable unless for some reason you find you need to send 16 different signals to the P16s, in which case I would find a mix bus or set of mix busses that are being sent to the P16s and assign it to those, relying on the performers to have at least one of those channels active on their personal P16M.
