iv - UNMUTE MIC 1 on the desk and start
talking
This YELLOW light turns OFF when
your mic is LIVE
If your mic sounds too loud in the headphones
pull this fader down a little bit to reduce the
mic volume
PRO TIP!
- UNCHAINING
If a song has the ‘Chain’ box ticked it means that PlayOutONE
will automatically fade in the next song when it finishes
UNTICK ‘Chain’ to make PlayOutONE wait
after the selected song
THIS MEANS YOU CAN TALK WITHOUT
THE NEXT SONG STARTING TO PLAY AND
INTERRUPTING YOUR SEXY LINK
PRO TIP!
