Live Background Vocal Control From Stage

Why not feed the direct outs of your console to the FOH? There's no need for an additional mixer.

If the direct outs are post fader you can get the balance you need with individual feeds. If the direct outs are wired pre fader try balancing the vocals with the mic pre for FOH. Then adjust what you need for you IEM with the faders. Or if the console is large enough, split the mics into the other channels and feed the FOH from there. If these possibilities work for you all you need to tell the FOH engineer is to line the fader up in unity.

Thank you.
I was thinking that I would just send all the vocals out a stereo buss fully blended and dressed with the efx I want on them as well as a bit of compression. This would require a seperate mixer I believe and also make it easier. I was thinking of one of the mackie mixers????

Do you need the second mixer because you'e using all 20 inputs and all 12 mono (6 stereo) outputs of the XRM or you feel better about having a completly separate desk?
