The On-Air Announcer Console is the ultimate broadcast-quality tool for announcers and commentators, the AB-120 integrates all of the inputs, outputs, and controls necessary at the announce position, including intercom "Talkback," IFB receiver, and a silent "Mute" button that provides noise-free cough and "mic on/off" switching. Extremely flexible, the console is easily configured for practically any combination of audio sources, microphones, headsets, or intercom systems, ensuring quality audio and powerful communications.
