Hi Jim,

Thanks for listening,

In fact after more listening, I'm quite fine with the dynamic aspect of the Listen Mic Compressor (it's even is cool to get consistent speaking level and articulation), and I can live with the slight distortion.

Though I dislike the mic sound itself, too mid rangey but especially it pick too much of "touching" noise
i.e. when touching fader or a knobs, pushing the talkback button, or even just graze the chassis of the console !
More over, (if the DIM is not engaged already) at the moment I push the talkback button, there's a little click/beep sound (I guess a relay switching or similar) sent the cue.

This is just disturbing and umcomfortable, and while I really enjoy the desk, this is a important issue to me...
Probably there's a way to upgrade the mic itself to something else 'electrostatic sounding' ?
I'm pretty sure it's not broken, but the way it work. (I've also heard some other owners disliking the sound of the talkback too)

TO OTHER USERS : how do you like the talkback ?
