Yes, that's correct. When I worked at BBC Bush House in London, there was a toggle switch on every studio console labelled "Ben", so that the operator could insert the chimes as needed. The microphone in the clock tower was live all the time so the op could check the feed, and you could occasionally hear conversations of workmen in the tower. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ftlight's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5294 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109963 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
