S4 Booth Outputs
S4 Booth Outputs Posted on: 25.06.2012 by Gilda Schreider So me as many others have a need for booth outs and being that this is a huge issue I need to get this taken care of fastThis is what I was advised to do get a mixer that was recommended by a sweetwater rep to use a Mackie 802-vzlz3 at times I do need additional mike outs and can use the additional channels they do have a smaller one but this is perfect Here is the Mackie http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/802VLZ3/ He said they way I should hook this up is with a Y cable out from the S4's headphone jack and not plug in the S4 direct to the mixer... Does this make sense to anyone | |

| Gilda Schreider 25.06.2012 | I am still learning so I am kinda of confused I even ordered the Traktor bible trying to read and get my hands on experience as much as possible I appreciate all the advise and other info many others at the community
give so I appreciate it As far as if I get ya im still a lil confused but I am figuring if I use my 1/4's for the main system not plugging them into a mixer strait to QSCkw's and then use the RCA's to the pilot the main audio volume will then control all and just use the level pilot to adjust my booths... is that it? Also being that the signal is being split will this cause any audio issues as far as quality or volume? |
