Question Patching Outboard Mic Pres in a live sound console/ In Ear Monitoring
Looking for suggestions and comments on patching outboard mic pres into live sound consoles. I believe the standard is to patch the output of the external mic pre into the channel I/O's insert return point.

This means I may or may not have the console eq to use depending on the board, yes?

Thought I'd ask for help/comments before I begin to take out my pres with me.

Also if anyone has any links to good articles about current in-ear monitoring systems please post them.... looking to convert the band I work for!

Thank you

MY standard is to use line level input, so that you can still utilize outboard inserts.

If the desk only has mic level in, use the inline pad for line level or lower your mic pre output level.

What desks and outboard pre's are you using?
