Basic Theory
Pgm, Aud, Tel
The little buttons above the volume sliders decide where the sound on that line will go.
- PGM: output goes to the Program Computer to be broadcast live.
- Aud: output goes to Adobe Audition recorder.
- Tel: output goes to the telephone lines.
Going Live
The master computer directs all output from the board to the air, starting around 16:00:01, and takes the output from the board off the air around 16:56:31.
Either it works or it doesn't.
Getting the show on the air is not the lowly moderator's problem.
How to Set Up for the Show
Start Spark Chat
- Double-click the Spark icon.
- Select conference chat.
- Fuss with name to personalize it and get the desired color scheme. “Daughter of Zion†apparently is not a good color. “father†is hot pink.
Start Adobe Audition
- Double-click on icon.
- Click record button.
- A small window will pop up asking confirmation of the default bit rate. Click OK.
- May start this early. The material recorded before the program begins can be trimmed.
- Make sure that the recording track is not highlighted.
- Black = not highlighted; white = highlighted.
- If it is highlighted, it will stop recording at the end of the highlighted block.
- Sanity check: Start recording, minimize the window or drag another window over it, and make sure that the recording continues. Be careful not to highlight the track while doing the sanity check!
Start Flash Operator
- Double-click icon.
- Re-size and position windows as needed.
- Goal: get Spark and Operator arranged to your taste.
Plug Headphone into Board
- There is only one jack over in the lower righthand corner of the board.
- Turn Headphone on (Monitor is optional).
- Control volume with Headphone knob.

Studio A: Microphone
Line 7: Microphone A1
