Hello guys! How things going?
Im working with a band that plays some backing track thru 8 analog lines, (4xstereo) and we need to feed the PA mixer with those separated channels, but in some ocasions, we have had issues in some festivals, where some channels were out of phase on monitor mixer, and sometimes you couldnt hear the bass at all, sometimes we could hear the kick drum, well, a mess. so on those 8 DIs we would like to have a summ of those 8 channels into a stereo, that will be our monitor signal. just to make things easier, specially when we are playing in festivals without sound check, and new monitor engineer every night...
So, for PA mixer 4 stereo channels and monitor mixer stereo signal from the summ of the 4x stereo.
I was thinking that i could build 8x Bo hansen Dis and for the summ, get the signal from each "amplifier out" and summ it with 10k ohm resistors on to 2xXLR connector. the makeup gain will be made with the monitor mixer mic pres.
My doubt is, will i hurt the signal going into the PA mixer from the DIs outputs with this parallel summing?
Thank you!
Pedro
