Monitor Mixing

Monitors are used to allow band members to hear
themselves.
When dealing with the monitoring requirements of, say,
a large live band, it is common practice to keep the
monitor mix function totally separate from the Front of
House console.
Some form of graphic equaliser in line with each monitor
speaker is desirable as it allows troublesome frequencies to
be notched out. The monitor system is rung out in exactly
the same way as the main PA and the final ringing out must be done with both the
monitor and main PA systems set at their normal operating
level.The monitoring console is situated off-stage and
derives its feed direct from mic splitters. Note: the Spirit
Monitor 2 console has its own built-in mic splitters.
