30.6 AUDIO TAB
The Audio tab provides a number of controls for audio output.
The Main Audio Out button controls Maestro’s access to audio from the radio. When enabled, audio
is sent to Maestro for reproduction in speakers or headphones. When disabled, audio is kept at the
radio where it may be sent to attached speakers or headphones.
The Front Speaker button turns Maestro’s front panel speaker on and off.
The Binaural Audio button controls the production of a virtual 3D spatial depth of field listening
experience by shifting the phase of the recovered audio relative to one channel of the speakers or
headphones. The effect may enhance weak signal reception. This effect can only be heard in
headphones attached to Maestro.
The Mute local audio when remote button mutes the speaker and audio outputs of the radio when
the radio is controlled by a remote client via SmartLink.
The Slice A and Slice B sections of the tab contain controls reproduced from the A and B Slice front
panel knobs and display controls. Volume, left to right Pan, AGC recovery rate and threshold are
available for adjustment by tapping and sliding the controls. When the Slice is in an FM mode, the
AGC controls are replaced with a Squelch enable button and Squelch level. Changes made to these
values are reflected throughout Maestro.
When Maestro is connected to a FLEX-6600 or FLEX-6700, diversity mode controls appear between
the Slice A and Slice B volume controls and the Radio section. These controls provide adjustments
for audio volume and AGC for each of the Slices in diversity mode.
