Henry Engineering Talent Pod - Microphone/Headphone IFB Controller
The Talent Pod is an announcer's mic and headphone controller for use by talent at a remote broadcast. It is ideal for use at sporting events and on-location broadcasts. Talent Pod solves the problem of providing talent with a mix of Local and Return (IFB or "back- haul") audio for their headphones. Its simplicity allows for error-free use by non-technical users; several units can be quickly linked for use at broadcasts with multiple announcers. The Talent Pod provides the announcer a convenient way to turn his mic on and off and control his headphone audio. There is a large illuminated Mic On/Off button and also a Cough button which momentarily mutes mic audio. The mic control functions are compatible with any professional dynamic or condenser microphone. The Talent Pod also provides control of the announcer's headphone audio, allowing remote-site Local audio to be mixed with the Return audio that's sent to the site from the main studio. There are separate inputs for Local and Return
