Live Stereo PA System

This diagram shows microphones connected to the mic inputs of channels 1 and 2, and a vocal

compressor connected to the channel 1 insert jack. Bass and electric guitars are attached to channels

3 and 4 via DI boxes with a stereo compressor on the insert. The lead guitar plays through a stereo

effects processor plugged into channels 7 and 8. An electronic drum kit is connected to channels 9

and 10, while a synth is connected to the line inputs of channels 13 and 14. An iPod

docking station

is connected to the tape RCA inputs, so you can play pre-recorded music during the breaks.

A multi-effects processor is connected to aux send 1, with the aux send set to post-level. Effects are

added to the main mix via the stereo return inputs, and adjusted with the stereo return level control.

To use the aux send for stage monitors instead of an effects processor, set the aux to pre-level so the

monitor volume level can be adjusted independently from the main loudspeakers. This setup may easily

be conﬁgured to become a mono PA setup: (A) Stereo sources should feed the left mono side of the

channel input only, (B) pan each channel hard left, (C) connect the mono PA system to the left main out.

The main mix output connects to a stereo graphic EQ before connecting to a pair of DLM12S powered

subwoofers which are connected to a pair of DLM8 powered loudspeakers to please your audience.
