    You might be able to setup a single top node conference, then bridge
    in lower node conferences. In this situation you could have 6 lower
    node boxes each with 50 callers into it, and each of the 6 lower
    node conferences called into the single top node conference(along
    with your main audio producing stream(the professor, etc). This
    would be a bit more complicated to control for muting, etc.<br>
