[. . . ] The Insert only to first "click. " talkback circuit is bidirectional -- it can either trigger something or be triggered by something. To remotely trigger HUI's talkback function, conTS PLUG nect a normally-open on/off footswitch to this jack. Channel Insert jack This is for the producer who loves to sit comDirect out with signal interruption to output. fortably back and communicate with the talent Insert all the way in to the second "click. " during crucial moments in a recording session. Conversely, if the engineer wants to enable another console's talkback function via the HUI TRS PLUG front panel talkback switch, connect a TS cable Channel Insert jack between this jack and an unbalanced destination jack. (TIP = SEND to effect, RING = RETURN from effect. ) is pressed (enabled), the line is pulled "low. " See page 31 for a diagram of this circuit. These are two of Mackie's high-headroom, low-noise mic or only to the first click, which does not interpreamps. Intended for mic-level inputs only, rupt the audio (see "Insert Jack Options" figure). The latter method allows you to use the they offer plenty of gain and sonic clarity. 1/4 TRS jacks for routing your with TRS to TS send and TS return "Y" cables. These connectors can also be used as direct microphones to external sources, such as the outputs using a 1/4 TS plug pushed in all the DAW audio interface for recording. These lineway (interrupting the audio signal completely), level outputs will provide either balanced and unbalanced signals. 16 HUI FEATURES AND CONTROLS AUDIO INPUT AND OUTPUT Signal Flow Primer Monitoring the audio signals can be done in either mono, stereo, or surround-sound (with six discrete channels). The outputs are controlled by three separate output level controls and toggle switches (labeled OUTPUT 1, 2, and 3). HUI uses DCAs (digitally controlled amplifiers) to control internal signal flow completely independent of the DAW. The signal is distributed according to which inputs and outputs are enabled. 1:1 Discrete Monitor Mode -- enabled inputs are not summed When HUI's 1:1 DISCRETE switch is engaged (the LED will light), the control room section becomes a discrete surround matrix capable of either standard 4. 1 surround (L/R/Center/Surround/subwoofer), or 5. 1 surround (L/R/Center/ Surround L/Surround R/subwoofer). You can set up your DAW audio output configuration so that the various "stem" outputs correspond to the physical outputs on the DAW audio interface. These outputs are then patched to HUI's MONITOR INPUTS 1, 2, and 3. With 1:1 DISCRETE engaged, the output LEVEL controls for OUTPUTS 1, 2, and 3 act as trims for the respective mix stems (L/R/Center/ Surround L/Surround R/subwoofer). The MASTER VOLUME controls the level for all three output pairs, allowing you to trim the overall level of separate surround amp feeds. Keep in mind that, when in discrete mode, output pairs share a common stereo level control and individual outputs cannot be adjusted independently. Note: The DIM and MUTE controls operate on all outputs, regardless of whether HUI is in discrete mode. Refer to the audio block diagram on page 30 for further info. H UI REFERENCE GUIDE Stereo Monitor Mode -- enabled inputs' stereo signals are summed into one stereo signal In stereo monitor mode -- with the 1:1 DISCRETE switch turned off -- any of the three stereo input sources may feed any of the stereo MONITOR OUTPUTS (OUTPUT 1, 2, and 3).
