Thanks Jeff - been using this now for a few months to feed talkback into a remote session, and to feed monitor wedges on livestreams - very handy!

Hey Jeff, I followed your video, and was able to set up a TB in PT that would respond to the Talk switch on my S6. That said, I also have a client mic in my studio. The mic on the S6 is input into the MTRX Studio mic/inst input 1. The client mic, which has a momentary switch is plugged into mic/inst 2 and the switch connector on the MTRX Studio. TB 1 is routed to DigiLink 1, ch 17. Client mic is routed to DigiLink 1, ch 18. They are set up in the Monitor section as 2 separate outputs. In PT, I created 2 separate Aux channels, one fed by 17 in for TB 1, and the other with an input from 18 for TB 2. Here's the problem, when I hit talk for either mic, it's feeding both 17 and 18 inputs to both aux channels. Any ideas why that would be happening?

BTW, thank you for posting the instructional video to begin with. It was very helpful.

Did you create a Mono or a Stereo Output from the Slate Monitor created in the DADman monitor profile? In my example -> I have a mono output using DigiLink 1- 13.

They are mono. Going out DigiLink 1 17 and 18 respectively.

Perhaps take a snap of these monitors in your profile and we can troubleshoot it better.

Not sure on the DUC attachments. You can certainly use DB, Google or other file sharing service to post the images.

Hi Jeff, thanks for the instructions on setting up TB. The part of the concept I'm having trouble grasping is why would the Mic be on the Output. In other words, how does the routing know what the source (channel) the mic is on if that's not defined under source in the monitor setup in DADMan?
