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 the live mics be sent into the front of house mix.

Silent Jam Session

There is no requirement that a mixer be used with the Personal Monitor Mixing System. In fact it makes a great late-night jam session environment for keyboard players, guitarists, and electronic drummers, etc.

To set up a silent headphone system for jamming:

Connect the outputs from stereo keyboards to inputs on the Input module.

If the keyboard player uses a sub-mixer, you can optionally connect the stereo output of the keyboard mixer to two inputs on the Transmitter.

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 Link switches on the Input module for any stereo Channel pairs.

Other Uses for the Personal Mixer Outputs

The stereo audio outputs on the A-16II Personal Mixer can be used with stereo headphones, in-ear monitors, or powered speakers. But, since the outputs are at line level, they are capable of sending the current monitor mix to any audio device capable of using a line level audio signal.

Record a Mix

The output of your Personal Mixer can be used for recording. To connect the stereo TRS line output to some devices you may need to use an adapter to split the signal into two separate mono outputs—one for the left side, the other for the right. To record the output of a Personal Mixer:

Create a mix. Use panning, mutes, Groups etc. as required.

Save the Preset to a memory location.

Connect the line outputs of the Personal Mixer to the inputs of the recorder. (You may need a special cable to split the stereo signal into dual mono signals.)

Play back the mix you created.

Set an appropriate audio level for recording on the device.
