[Avid-L2] Re: ISDN - What's the new way of doing this?

Why do they call it POTS Codec? It sounds like two phone lines with some sort of IFB functionality on the send line which would provide the Mix minus for talent to read to. Doubt the talent would hear themselves back because of the delay but what do I know. My brain is on the two cans and a string right now. At least I slept last night. ;-) I better learn to say no to work, but in this economy and the regular gig wrapping up for an undetermined break I can't right know. Back in the day I could call the guy and stay up all night but now I'd have to call my sponsor. I guess that's progress. Meanwhile back to "When Fish Attack."
