The Model 230 Announcer’s Console is designed to serve as the audio control “hub” for announcers, commentators, and production personnel. The tabletop unit is suited for numerous applications including on-air television and radio broadcasting. The Model 230 is compatible with essentially all broadcast and production audio system environments. Standard connectors are used to interface microphone, headphone, on-air, talkback, IFB, and party-line intercom signals.
