Thank you so much. I come from the live band world, so I'm familiar with IEMs, but not IFBs. This was a concise and informative way for me to understand exactly what my client's needs are. You are the best. Headed to Harbor Freight now.
Great video! But what if the audience also need to listen to the remote speaker? In that case you can use something like automix or manually ride the faders so that when the remote person is speaking, the talent's mics are low enough to avoid picking the loudspeakers sound. Any skilled sound technicisn can do that , although in a fast paced conversation it is challenging.
If the audience needs to hear, you simply use your audio mixer to route the audio to the speakers in the room. The IFB is used more in scenarios like the news station where you can't see the audience so it's great if someone is doing a livestream from a studio and needs to see/hear virtual guests who are calling in.

Glad you liked it! Note the case came from Harbor Freight (and I use tons of these for other gear too) and the IFB itself is from Amazon/B&H
