Hookup Diagrams

Typical Live Sound System

This diagram shows an acoustic guitar plugged into the channel 1 line input with the line/hi-z switch

engaged. A microphone is connected to the channel 2 XLR input for vocals and a keyboard is attached

to the channel 3-4 line-level inputs. An iPod docking station is attached to the stereo tape inputs.

Thump15 powered speakers are connected to the left and right main output. Two of these speakers are

also set up as stage monitors and connect to the mixer's monitor output. The aux mon controls of each

channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix as desired, while headphones are used for monitoring.
