Sound Booth Guide (B5)

A step-by-step guide on how to record using the equipment in the B5 Sound Booth

Step 2: Turn on the rack

Inside the V/O booth at the right of the door is the power switch for EVERYTHING inside the Sound Booth

  • Use the 6 Way to the Right of the front of the booth door to position the 'OFF/ON' switch to the on position .
    •                                                                    

 


The Rack Lights

The rack has its own set of lights that you can turn on with the black switch on the left side of the rack as the red power button (labeled 'LIGHTS'). They are there mainly for allowing users to see the rack controls and settings more easily when it's dark.

! ) If you turn these lights on DO NOT push the cylinders that house the lights into the rack. The cylinders should be out when the lights are on!

Use the power switch at the door to turn on and off ALL THE ELECTRONICS AT ONCE.  DO NOT turn off the monitor, lamps or anything individually.

Step 3: Confirm display output signal

Inside the booth there is a black KVM box to the left of the monitor.

Use this box to change which computer (Mac or PC) the equipment in the booth is connected to.

  • Press the 'SELECT' button until the blue light corresponds with the station you are working with:

Mac = (B5C)

 PC= (B5D)
