Thank you so much. I needed to add my Alesis mixer with 4 mic pres to increase the mic channels for my ProFx16v2. This was just what I needed. BTW, CZcams has some 10 hour test tone videos that were easier to use as they were longer!
Great video. I added a second mixer today. I really like those mixer stands by the way. I'm trying to learn how to use the tap delay feature on my new mixer. If you could point me to a good website to learn how to use it I'd appreciate it. My new mixer is the Behringer X1204 usb.
Hello I came to yuotube looking for: adding a chaser to a mixer and I landed here. You seem to know a lot about mixers so allow me to ask you a question. Many M A N Y years ago I worked as a night club DJ yeah back in the 70's When I got in the club everything was already setup by the contracted tech company that was in charge of all the night clubs equipment, Gosh I miss them days, anytime something broke or needed service them techs were in the club within the hour. Now, on the mixer, I turned a knob on the mixer, I think the knob was ' effect ' and I could make the lights on stage go fast slow or off, on the chaser I would select the sequence of lights, stop the red one make the blue one flash, make then all roll at the same time in the same direction, I guess you know what I mean by now. Awesome, good job Now I am at home an own a Behringer Eurorack UB 1202 FX 12 Channel Mixer and I would like to install lights and a chaser in my home, for when I hold house parties, cna you show me how this can be done? Thanks in Advance for a good 'ol boy in Montreal, Quebec Canada -Cheers- ayeeeee
For the first method that u showed, let say I mic up my entire drum kit, which is a five piece drum kit, how do I add EQ to every drum mic, for the snare, tom 1 Tom 2 floor Tom and kick?
Great explanation. Question I have is can I connect a powered mixer to a passive mixer with the goal of using the "amp" of the powered mixer to power the passive mixer and the rest of the system. For clarity I have a Peavey xr800d (powered) and a Mackie sr24-4 vlz pro passive
I have a noise problem using my SoundCraft UI12 as a main out mixer and a Peavey PV 10AT mixer as a sub. (or the reverse combination does the same) I get a pretty bad ground noise problem, and thus, cannot do what I like with the two. (I use 2 BOSE L2 towers and the large sub for the output in stereo). your video covered a setup of two mixers pretty well, but lets add one more mixer for our female vocalist who wants to have her channel isolated to control it separately. ( I desire the SoundCraft to be used for mixing the total output to the Bose towers, having another person mix the volume and tones with my IPad out in the room.) Our band setup is only a Yamaha Genos Keyboard and my electric Lead guitar. all three of us sing, but the keyboard player needs the auto tune module in his peavey to correct his flat voice. he wont sing without it. the female singer wants to have complete control over her voice with her own sub mixer, and myself needs to have a clean signal that demonstrates my vocal abilities especially when I do imitations of famous singers such as Elvis, Buddy Holly, and even some of the best country singers like Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings and Freddy Fender, to name a few. Can you help with all that?? MDJ.
Can you please reply me back? I have this situation. I have a powered mixture (2x250,4 ohm) and an analogue mixture (signature 16) . I dont have a budget to buy an amplifier. I connected the analogue mixture output to powered mixture using line out to power my passive speakers (elx115). Will it ruin the speakers? should i buy a power amplifier?
Hi, first of all this is an awesome video (Liked and subscribed) and has helped me so much. However, I do have a question. My main mixer is a Gemini ES210MXBLU and it has no umity setting just has volume for "stereo in" (which I am going in from my sub mixer) and main volume knobs that both go from 0-10. My question is what level do I set the volumes for stereo in and main volume on the main mixer?
This may be a dumb question, duh, I am not sure, but a friend of mine had all the vocals on a small mixer with FX's, etc. He plugged an XLR from the main out on the small mixer to the first XLR input of the 2nd larger mixer. He said it worked very well. Why do you not have that as an option, and for what reason. Curiously - Joe Thank you all.
May I add that: If using an "XLR cable" from the main out(output) of a mixer and that "XLR cable" goes into a mic in(input) on another mixer, you should use an "attenuator" in-between the connection of both mixers because, "line levels" and "microphone levels" use different amounts of voltage to operate properly --- the voltage amount difference is huge between a "line level" and a "microphone level".
Can we connect a aux2 send from main mixer to add on mixer ? and get recording from sub mixer Based on aux2 controls - recording of sub mixer will be different? Is this wrong!
I love to watch all your video on youtube,awesome job. I do have a question for you I want to see if I can buy a used mackie FX pro 12 mixer from you. Thanks
Hi, I am trying to do just what you are talking about. Can you re-explain what you are doing with the small board where the effects are? You are going on the red and white, left and right into a channel? Channel 4 where (a channel imput 1/4 inch at the top of the channel, then you are going to the control room out or monitor out or mean out? what is a mean out? We did everything you told us but can not get it to happen. We have a Bheringer Board with onboard effects and can not get the effects into the other board. Eurorack 2222fx is the board we want to get the effects out of. Mackie 1402 is the board we want to put the effects into. We are either getting an entirely dry signal or an entirely wet signal with no dry. Thanks if you can advise?
please , i have a question. someone told me if i connect TRS to adapter TS female to TRS male on insert will change to work a direct output ? that right ? or 2. use 1/4-inch TRS Female to 1/4-inch TRS Male Headphone Extension Cable
great job.. how do use a compressor to support a whole mixer? and in stereo.. would that mean i have to use 6 amplifiers?.. or how do i set it up using only 3 amplifiers of 2.. hope you find the time to answer this..thanks
Hello ! How do I use more than one effect at a time on one mixer ? Is there a good mixer with many effects where I can use more than one effect at the same time ? Thank you
Thank you for the info video! I have 2 - 8 Chan mixers (Mckie & Yamaha) I want to do the TEST TONE on you mention at marker 9:35, Q = is the 800 Hz the only one I'll need to do or are there more? Awesome job of showing us How To! So do you go up the scale of each Hz to balance the 2 mixers or will only one do?
What if you wanted to control it from the other mixer that has the iPad plugged in? Asking for an ideal setup for plugging into a bar setup without modifying their setup. Would you tune and control it the same?
Great video! I have a question where I think the answer is no, but hope you can confirm? For my band I need to plug my smaller mixer with 4 channels / 2 Aux from the main outs to the left/right Inputs of my larger mixer with 8 channels / 4 Aux,. I then have to connect the fall backs speakers into the 4 Aux of the 8 channel mixer - but my question is, is there a way for me to incorporate and adjust the mix of what is plugged into the 4 channel mixer through the 4 Aux of the 8 channel mixer? Example I may have 4 mics for backup vocals in the smaller mixer whilst the instruments and main vocals are in the larger 8 channel mixer. But the band may ask me to bump up the backup vocals in the fall backs and as the fall backs are plugged into the 4 outs of the larger mixer I don’t really have a way of bumping them up other than turning up the volume which of course goes through the main speakers for the crowd? Hope that question made sense? Thanks
@@expertisland I have the Bose T4S and Bose T8S mixers. (Use them on 2 x Bose L1 Model II and multiple S1’s as fall backs). Band is minimum Keys, bass, drums and Guitar + 2 lead vocals - but all 6 have mics for vocals.
@@expertisland so basically if I plug the T4S into the T8S (which has 4 Aux outs) I want to be able mix whatever I have plug directly into the T4S through the Aux of the T8S (let’s say the backup vocals mics of the 4 instrumentalists) but I don’t think there’s a way to do that? At least not the way I’m doing it where I plug the T4S main outs into the ins of the T8S? I also tried doing it the other way around T4S into the T8S with all instruments and backup vocals plugged into the T8S and the 2 leads in the T4S but then I’m stuck being able to only put the lead vocals through the 2 Aux Outs via fall backs lol.
Hi there! Great video! Now I am looking to purchase a cable-Y as shown in your video. what is it called ? I can't find any on your website either. Di you have a direct link to this item ?
Hi. After watching this video I have a question in my mind - I have a Yamaha stagepas 400i PA system. Now if I want to add an analog mixer with effects to this Yamaha powered mixer, is this be okay to do that and if I will be able to get effects of an additional analog mixer on my hooking up microphones on this analog mixer. I hope you will send me your feedback asap. Thanks
Knows what he's doing but.....to many "right here's" in this video when plugging in to the mixers for the rest of us to follow. My mixers don't have a "right here" spot on the mixer. Use the actual name of the plug in on the mixers. The camera is too far away from the mixers to see the actual plug in spot/channel. Obviously in a hurry to explain the process.....almost useless!
I think whoever is watching this has basic understanding of mixture layouts. So, even if he doesn't say "right here" we can know what goes where. Though yeah, it would have been better if he mentioned
@@johnroberts5562 Hi John as a singer i want one mixer to use for my stage performance controlling the effects on my vocals, telling me oh just buy a second and connect them together is a ridiculous suggestion !
@@PDHulme17 I think you miss the point about what the video is about.. This is about "adding" more chan's to a system by hooking 2 mixers together.. It's about "Balance" between the 2 mixers so one is not louder than the other.. So if you have a 32 Chan Mixer you don't need this.. I get what the video is about now and it makes sense to me.. I'm running two 8 Chan Mixers into one ... Thanks for your input
I always look forward to your videos you have great content. Like Alway great job. Thanks

Absolutely marvellous! Thank you so much!
Your channel always helps, thanks!
Always enjoyed all input 👍 on my mackie mixer especially Mackie Pro 12v2. Great job
Would be nice if you explain those terms of out and inputs, aux, sends, etc. Thanks for the video! Grear content!
