S6 auto talkback issues

[Chris Formosa]

I'm running a 3 system dual S6 post setup. DadMan/MTRX running from the stem recorder. Auto talkback is set up and is "working" with some limitations.

Auto talkback works fine when using the transport of the stem recorder, but does not respond to satellite control when using the transport of the mix systems. Which makes it kind of useless since the stem transport is rarely used.

Is there a setting needed to make this work? The satellite play commands don't seem to be getting passed to the TB control. I can't seem to find anything that indicates this is a switch.

PT/S6/Eucon all at 23.6, DadMan 5.6.9.1

The S6 doesn't know about Satellite commands only its Transport buttons.

Actually it seems to. When I hit play on a satellite system, the play tally turns green on the S6, so it obviously is aware of current play status. It's just a matter of having the auto talkback respond to current play status rather than just local transport commands. As it stands, auto talkback is essentially useless in multi system setups. It wasn't ever an issue until remote reviews became the norm.

I'll look into it.

Software came back and said that it is going off the LED status, so should work......and QA just tested this and it works for them too.
