input module first and then use the Thru jack on the input
module to complete the signal chain.
In either case the performers can now decide how much of the effects return
is required in their personal mix. And, they can save up to sixteen mixes with
various amounts of effects in each.
Adding Live Ambience to a Monitor Mix
For performers using in‑ear monitors in a live performance situation, it may
be desirable to add some room ambience into the monitor system to help add
a sense of space. This technique can be used with most live mixing consoles.
All you need is a way to send the signal from one or more room mics into the
Pro16 input module. A pair of mics on either side of a stage provides a stereo
ambience signal that can be added as needed to a performer’s mix.
If you are using direct outputs from channels to send instrument and mic
signals into the input module, you need to dedicate two channels to the mics
that are picking up the ambient sound. It is not necessary that these live mics
be sent into the front of house mix.
Silent Session
There is no requirement that a mixing console be used with the Pro16 Monitor
Mixing System, especially when you have an analog input module. It makes
a great self‑contained rehearsal environment for keyboard players, guitarists,
and electronic drummers, etc.
To set up a silent monitoring system:
Connect the outputs from stereo keyboards to inputs on •
the Pro16 input module.
If the keyboard player uses a sub‑mixer, you can optionally
•
connect the stereo output of the keyboard mixer to two
inputs.
Patch the output of a guitar amp simulator into a pair of
•
inputs.
Connect an electronic drum kit’s outputs into the input
•
module.
Set the stereo link switches on the input module for any
•
stereo channel pairs.
Other Uses for the Personal Mixer Outputs
The stereo audio outputs on the Personal Mixer can be used with stereo
headphones, in‑ear monitors, or powered speakers. But, since the outputs
