Hookup Diagrams
Typical Live Sound System
This diagram shows a bass and guitar attached to the channel 1 and 2 line-level inputs, each
via a mono effects processor. The Hi-Z switch is engaged on both channels. A mic'd up drum
kit utilizes the next four channels of the mixer. Microphones are connected to the following five
channels and will handle lead and background vocal duties. A phone is connected to the last
channel on the board, the 1/8" stereo input.
DRM18S powered subwoofers are connected to the left and right main outputs. Those are then
connected to a pair of DRM215 loudspeakers to complete the PA. Two DRM212 loudspeakers
are also set up as stage monitors and connect to the mixer's aux (monitor) output via a graphic
EQ. The aux mon controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix as desired.
Headphones are used for monitoring and a footswitch allows you to mute/unmute the internal
effects as desired.
It's not shown, but a laptop may connect to the USB port on the rear panel of the mixer.
It allows the main mix of the performance to be recorded to a DAW, as well as playback
from the computer to the main mix.
USB 3-4
