Live Sound: Two Mixers Linked
So the club down the street is running sound through a DL Series mixer and you want to one-up them?
That’s easy! How about running sound through TWO DL Series mixers?! No, it won’t be twice as loud,
but you will have nearly twice as many inputs which means you’ll probably have twice the talent playing
at your venue in no time.
Start by setting up and connecting each musician’s instrument just like they would be in any other
live situation. When you run out of inputs on the rst mixer, start using inputs on the second mixer.
All you need to do is leave eight inputs open on the second mixer. Then make the connection from
the outputs and auxes of mixer #1 to the inputs of mixer #2. The outputs of mixer #2 are then sent
to the inputs of the PA.
An iPad is connected and locked to each mixer, while a third (wireless) iPad is available for wandering
the venue and creating an awesome mix.
