Talkback Mic app adds AirPlay Support!

Free: https://itunes.apple.com/tw/app/talkback-mic/id480263826
I actually asked him to add the AirPlay support so let's support a friendly developer by grabbing this app while it's still free :) !

Thanks for the link - Not having a talkback mic was one of the things holding me back from pulling the trigger on the DL1608. I bought the DL1608 anyway and lack of talkback has not been as much of a PIA as I thought, but I'm really glad to see this option. I will be checking it out this weekend.

The Talkback Mic app worked OK and cant beat the price!
It was a little confusing because you cant select the AirPlay device within the app. It does have an AirPlay icon, but if you push it, you just get a clumsy set of instructions for turning on AirPlay using the default Music Player app. All you really need to do is make sure the default iPad Music app is using AirPlay and select the router there.
The iPad's microphone does not sound great but gets the job done. Hardly any perceptible delay running over AirPlay
Both the TalkBack-mic app and Master Fader take several seconds to synch when you swipe back and forth between the two apps. This makes the setup a little awkward to use as a traditional talkback mic. Also, I dont like that every time I swipe back to the TalkBack app, it sets the volume to the max instead of leaving it where it was
So a few complaints, but its workable. Fortunately, in most cases I no longer need a regular talkback mic because its so easy to move around with the DL. For someone who does the soundcheck from a booth or needs to communicate with the band once the show starts, this could be real handy.

I tried to get this to work and had no luck, can you give me a little more specific info on how you got it to work?
Kevin:
Make sure that AirPlay is working with the default music player. Once it is, then the talkback app should just work.
