Or, even as a duo or 2 - 3 singers this still makes sense to me. Much easier to control this way as a solo artist. Hearing in my monitor what is in the mains gives me confidence of what my audience is hearing. ![]() I perform solo with vocals, acoustic guitar and backing tracks. I don't currently use IEMs myself but I personally want to hear in my monitor the very same mix that is in the mains. This is usually suffice for the intended purposes of having a small mixer. With this mixer and the simple way I explained you are going to get the same mix in the mains and in your IEM. Now try it with a microphone as you speak or sing. Put the IEM in your ear and slowly turn it up again. When you hear sound in the IEM back off the mixers CR/Headphone knob. Hold the IEM close to your ear while you slowly rotate the mixers CR/headphone knob. Turn the HP1 Volume knob to around 1/2 way (12 o'clock) Hang the IEM over your ear but don't put it in your ear yet. Plug the other end into the HP1 3.5mm TRS AUX input. This is a safety measure.Ĭonnect the cables large end 1/4" TRS (Tip, Ring, Sleeve) to the mixers headphone jack. Turn the headphone/control room knob all the way down to start with. Connect an MP3 player to one of the channels and get your sound going through the mixer to you normal speakers. Set your mixer up as you would for live sound performance. ![]() It's probably designed to reduce audible distortion but is not likely to protect your ears from damage. The LD HPA1 system does have built in limiters but I would not trust that on it's own to protect your ears. Very important Be careful you do not damage your ear drums. To send a signal to the FX Send connection but not to Main Mix, turn off the internal FX by turning the FX to Main knob all the way off.Ĭonnect it from the mixers CR/headphone jack the the HP1 Aux input. The internal FX's are not routed to the FX Send connection but are routed to the internal FX engine in parallel. As with any AUX send, the amount of signal routed to the FX Send connection is determined by the FX knob for each individual channel. ![]() The Fx Send is a mono signal Post Fader of the four mono channels and a summed mono signal of the 4 stereo channels and are affected by the channel fader position, EQ settings, Low Cut Filter and the Gain Trim. 1/4"-rca for main mix or 1/4"LR - 1/4" TRS for CR/Phones. You only have level control of the Main Mix output between the two routing options but each option provides two connections. ![]() The CR Out and Phones 1/4" jacks are also Main Mix and the output level is determined by the CR/Phones knob. The Main and tape outs levels are controlled by the Main Mix Fader. The two switches for TAPE route either the Main Mix or Tape Input to the CR/Phones outputs determined by which switch is pressed.Īll four outputs are the same mix (Main MIx)and is comprised of your channel fader position of each mono and stereo channel. The Control Room outputs and headphones outputs are the same and the output levels are controlled by the CR/Phones level knob. The LED meters reflect the signal level for these shared outputs. The Main Mix outputs and Tape outputs are the same and and the output levels of both are controlled by the main mix Fader. The OP should be able to route a signal to the IEM's without need for a Y split cable. It has a block diagram of the signal path. I googled for a pdf of the mixer you have, Mackie mix12fx with effects.
