Live Sound: Two Mixers Linked
So the club down the street is running sound through a DL1608 and you want to one-up them? That's easy!
How about running sound through TWO DL1608's?! No, it won't be twice as loud, but you will have nearly
twice as many inputs which means you'll probably have twice the talent playing at your venue in no time.
Start by setting up and connecting each musician's instrument just like they would be in any other live
situation. When you run out of inputs on the fi rst DL1608, start using inputs on the second DL1608.
All you need to do is leave eight inputs open on the second DL1608. Then make the connection from the
outputs and auxes of DL1608 #1 to the inputs of DL1608 #2. The outputs of DL1608 #2 are then sent to the
inputs of the PA.
An iPad is connected and locked to each DL1608, while a third (wireless) iPad is available for wandering the
venue and creating an awesome mix.
