      You can’t use an iPhone as an in ear monitor as no sound is transmitted over the WiFi. I use a Behringer P1 that runs from one of the Aux-out ports.

    It's a good device, but useless for DAW recording or doubling as a USB audio interface.

      Thank you! I've upgraded this set up now (currently working on an updated video!) but I think this was just a generic router given to me by my internet provider at the time which was just mounted inside the case using double sided tape! Nothing special, but it was a huge improvement to the Ui's built in hotspot!

  • @p_lawls
    @p_lawls Рік тому +1

    @sambacondrums for the two 1/4" jack outs labeled wedge L and wedge R: do you just run a 1/4" to XLR into your powered wedges? Do you still have the capability to tweak that monitor mix or is the main FOH mix being sent to those wedges? I don't own a Ui16, but a used one is up for sale locally. I dig the compact setup. I'm in a band that plays similar gigs and being able to load in/out quickly makes a huge difference. Cheers!

    • @smabacon
      @smabacon  Рік тому +3

      So we’ve changed our set up since this video came out, but if I remember rightly we ran 1/4” jacks from aux 5+6 to an amp, which then powered the passive wedges. The mix being sent to the wedges was fully controllable just like the other aux/foldback outputs, and not a FOH mix.
      We’ve actually stopped using wedges now and have a gone fully IEM. We’ve also upgraded to the Ui24R model for the additional inputs so planning on releasing an updated video soon!

    Hi we are looking at purchasing one of these for our similar type band, couple of questions if possible? If the Wi-Fi drops off does that mean all sound stops? Also does using one of these mean each band member had their own individual mix that they can decide on what they want to hear? Thanks

    • @smabacon
      @smabacon  Рік тому

      The wifi drops won’t affect the sound and Itl continue to play as it was before the drop, but it’s advisable to use an external router instead of the built in hotspot.
      And yes, you can connect multiple devices to the wifi network and each person can control their own mix, it’s great!

      I have had both in the last 2 years. They are both equally as good as far as the hardware is concerned. The user interface for the Soundcraft is MUCH better and user-friendly than the Behringer. The one pro that the Behringer seems to have is that you can download other effects. I do not see thtat as an option here.

    • @OrganicProductionsAu
      @OrganicProductionsAu Рік тому

      I don't think the Behringer XR16 will multitrack record onto a thumbdrive (it just records stereo... or so it did years ago). I have been using an XR18 for 5+ years - you have to plug in a PC to multitrack record or for any playback. Also the Behringer WIFI is only 2.4G with is near useless for live bands due to the congestion of that bandwidth. Now my output in the XR18 has blown, so I'm looking at the Soundcraft - mutitrack recording and playback via thumbdrive - plus 5G Wifi - seems like an upgrade. I'm pretty disappionted by the lack of Behringer development on their units over the last 5 years.
