Personal Monitoring
Personal monitoring will be available both from four EarMix 16M personal
monitor mixers as well as from QMix-UC. Each EarMix 16M is a 16-channel
digital mixer that receives audio inputs exclusively over AVB to be mixed
locally from the EarMix control surface. EarMix 16M personal mixers
are equipped with a high-voltage headphone amplifier and stereo line
outputs to feed either headphones or powered floor wedges.
By contrast, QMix-UC is an Android™ and iOS® app that remotely controls the Aux
Mixes on a StudioLive mixer. This is a great solution for musicians using wireless
in-ear system who desire simple, handheld control on their personal mobile device.
For more information on QMix UC, please review the QMix-UC Reference Manual.
Each of the four EarMix 16M personal monitor mixers in our
example will receive their channel sources as follows:
Stage Boxes
An NSB 8.8 and NSB 16.8 will both be added to the network to provide
two different locations on stage for analog connections to simplify
cable runs. The NSB 8.8 will be used exclusively for the drum kit. The
NSB 16.8 will provide input connections for the rest of the band.
In addition to providing analog input connections on stage, the outputs of the
two NSB-series stage boxes will receive their sources in our example as follows:
