Big thumbs up. I have been looking online for something like this all day. I have played in many bands but never messed with the PA. Now I have my own PA and never knew how to hook it up correctly. This video is a great teaching tool. Thank you so much.

Good day Mr Kelvin, I bought this exact Mixer console and your video have been have helpful. Currently my challenge is how to connect the bass, kick and the floor tom as inputs, and their output connections. Thanks

Thank you.

Thanks boss

[@vivekjoy9485]

Can you please reply me back? I have this situation. I have a powered mixture (2x250,4 ohm) and an analogue mixture (signature 16) . I dont have a budget to buy an amplifier. I connected the analogue mixture output to powered mixture using line out to power my passive speakers (elx115). Will it ruin the speakers? should i buy a power amplifier?

We lost the cable connecting from the power console to the mixer of 32 channels it has six pin from both the power console to the mixer.

Sir where do you connect the bass guitar 🎸is it on the mic line or line for intruments line on the console i need help because u dont have DI box,also the keyboard guitars do i connect them on the line of the mic or line out or line of intruments on the console

[@KelvinEriaganoma]

Connecting a bass guitar directly to the mic or line input of a mixing console without the use of a DI box is not advisable, because of impedance mismatch. Try any one of these methods instead;
1. If your mixer has a high impedance (Hi-Z) input, use it for the connection.
2. Use the direct-out built into the bass guitar amp/combo (that's if it's available), and connect it to a mic input on the mixing console.
3. Mic up the bass guitar combo/cabinet. Place a microphone with good low frequency response in front of the cabinet about 2 inches from the front, and a little away from the center.
A keyboard is a line-level instrument. So you are better off connecting it to the line input of your console.
Thank you for reaching out.

Thanks. I’ll try to work on that

[@cristianrodriguez2929]

Can I connect powered mixer with power amplifier?

[@KelvinEriaganoma]

Yes, you can. But you have to connect from the mixer output to the external amplifier and not from the internal amplifier output.

[@witty188]

Thank you, can you please make a video on connecting a cross-over

[@KelvinEriaganoma]

I'll add it to the list

[@keverlyhenry1450]
