Members Starboard Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 I recently figured I would give IEM's a try.......I've been playing in bands for years and had been using my trusty SRX 712M's for our monitors. I picked up a set of Shure 215 earbuds and made a dual cable that connects both my bass and the inears to my Yamaha O1v console. I am mixing from stage, so I use the headphone out to drive the earbuds and I assign Aux 1 to the headphone out. The long and the short of it is that with a little tweaking I've got the best monitor mix I've ever had. I can hear everything perfectly at a reasonable volume....it almost sounds like I'm listening to a CD. I kind of wish I would have tried it years ago. The rest of the band is still using wedges for their mixes and are very happy with them.......but with this band I may never go back! I'm pleasantly surprised.

Members kmart Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 You have any limiting involved? If not, please consider doing so, especially with live wedges still on stage. Your ears will thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
