Hookup Diagrams > Bands
ShowBox is a great tool for singer-songwriters, buskers, full bands, karaoke enthusiasts, and much more!
In this example, we’ve got a funk band that wants to lay the stank! Two mics are connected to the channel 1 and 3 XLR inputs
for the horn section. The six-string slinger is connected to the channel 2 input, while the low-end bass man is connected
to the channel 4 input. A synthesizer is connected to the channel 5-6 stereo jacks, and a drum machine to the 1/8" aux input.
Lastly, a footswitch is connected to the footswitch jack in order to turn FX on and off, as well as add loops. From here, set up
all channel inputs as you see fit. This includes the gain/volume levels, EQ settings, compressor level, FX (1 and 2), and more!
As seen in the previous pages, there are a multitude of other features that may be utilized in all three of these hookup diagrams.
For example, the performance may be livestreamed via the USB-C connection and/or recorded directly to micro SD card.
A subwoofer (or additional ShowBox) may be connected to the mix out jack. Are guitar pedals being added to the mix?
If so, they can be routed via the external FX send and return jacks. A phone or tablet can be connected to ShowBox
via Bluetooth for playback [i.e. put it in PA mode and play tunes through it while setting up (and tearing down) equipment].
...and lest we forget, before beginning the performance, be sure to utilize the ShowBox’s tuner feature!
