Hi,


Just an option but you can use the jack connection on the back for talk back. you could make a custom switch, touch to latch and touch to un-latch type etc and wire it to the jack. or even use a pedal. but either way could be a cheaper option.



I can't remember when i looked at the main section including the transport if the talk-back is swappable. but i don't think it is or at least not easily. or maybe you can just swap out the transport part with the talk back. i don't know would have to remove that main section and look.



I mostly use auto-talkback button instead, is that no use the way you work?
