Your using ardour as a broadcast mixer??
Shudder!

Not that ardour is not a very very cool program, but it strikes me as so
wrong for this application (no automated monitor ducking, no fader  
start,
insufficient PFL routing flexibility, no talk to caller.....).

IMHO There is a reason recording studio desks and radio production
desks are different!
