| Cue Mix
We bought several of the little Behringer mixers as More Me boxes. Every one gets the stereo 2 mix that I hear in the control room (I could give them a separate Aux mix, but I like to hear what they are hearing) and can EQ both the 2 mix and their More Me input, and control the volume of both.
The bassist plugs his preamp into a DI and I take the 1/4" out of the DI to his Behringer. Same with Keys. The guitarist gets a second mic on his cabinet, into the Behringer XLR to give him control of his signal to his phones. Drummer has a M88 over his shoulder into his mixer. Everyone can turn themselves up versus the 2 mix from me.
Anyone with a line level signal goes into the 1/4 ins on the Behringer, anyone mic'ed gets a second mic or a feed from any onboard piezo. Works great.
Vocals are cut as scratch vocals so singer gets 2 mix only. When keeper vocals are tracked, they get whatever they want from me. The Behringer boxes are around $60.00 each.
