Members DP Posted March 28, 2013 Members Share Posted March 28, 2013 I'm considering using a Behringer 802 as my personal monitor live. Band is not using in-ears but I would be plugging in Shure buds and a click (drummer). Assuming this is doable. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pro Sound Guy Posted March 28, 2013 Members Share Posted March 28, 2013 Why not use in ear buds with a wireless belt pack and tap off the main sound system mix?If you have enough sends on the mix you can have your own monitor mixExample.Band uses Aux 3 for monitors You use Aux 4 for your in ear monitor setup and your own mix.Aux 1 and 2 are used for effects.This is an example scenero laid out for you.I dont know your setup.You might have multiple monitor sends I do not know this.The idea you put forward dosnt make much sense.

Members samkokajko Posted March 28, 2013 Members Share Posted March 28, 2013 I see a lot of guys doing it though. Especially drummers with click. I work with several bands where the drummer has a little mixer (usually an 802 or similar) that takes a send from me for his monitors, then the trax and the click track and gives him individual control. That's the only place the click goes for that band. I also remember several years ago seeing a band's setup where they did the same thing but at every musician's position. It was a church band so being hardwired wasn't a problem and it was essentially just a headphone amp with a level control they can reach. Note that there is NO LIMITING so use caution and it is typically ill-advised for that reason. Other than that I do see it in use a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
