Application #5 – Adding a P1500X as a Stage Monitor

In a live performance, the performer may wish to have a stage monitor to help hear the performance better. The diagram below shows a P1500X used as a stage monitor for the performer plus two P1500X speakers (daisy-chained) for the audience. The performer(s) may have a different mix requirement than the audience which means all the THRU outputs from the performer(s) must be taken to the first loudspeaker used to cover the audience. At the first loudspeaker, the input levels can be mixed to the preferred presentation for the audience. The performer’s monitor can be mixed to the performer’s specific requirements without affecting what the audience hears

NOTE: Careful positioning of the monitor loudspeaker is required as the proximity to the microphone is susceptible to feedback. As a general rule, never point the microphone towards the loudspeaker.
