This is the perfect setup for using HD1221s as high output, professional stage monitors. This type of setup may be
utilized at local clubs, festival stages, in churches and more.
In this example, AUX SENDS 1-3 from a mixer feed the MAIN INPUTS of three Mackie HD1221 powered
loudspeakers which lay across the front of the stage as monitors for the band. Additionally, a fourth Mackie
HD1221 powered loudspeaker is daisy-chained by using the LOOP OUT XLR jack from one of the other
monitors, providing two monitors off of a single aux send. See page 15 [‘Appendix B: Connections’] for details
on how to daisy-chain loudspeakers.
The left and right main outputs from the same mixer feed the MAIN INPUTs of the house PA speakers. See the
hook-up diagram on the previous page [‘HD1221: 3-way system with powered subwoofers’] to see how to
connect the mixer to the PA.
