Stereo Mixer to Mono L1®
Contents
Using a stereo mixer with an L1
Here are some examples of connecting a stereo mixer to the mono input on your L1 .
The inputs on the L1 Model 1S, L1 Model II, and the Compact Channel 2 are MONO. For best results do NOT use any kind of Y-adapter to connect stereo outputs from a mixer to a mono input on an L1 . See Why Not Wye for details.

It's pretty easy to make this work. You can pan all your inputs hard LEFT and take the LEFT output and connect that to your L1 . If you have a stereo source and two stereo channels, then you can
- Run the left side of the stereo source to the left input on one stereo channel,
- Run and the right side of the stereo source to the left side of another stereo channel.
- Pan any other inputs hard left
- Use the left output of mixer and connect that to the L1 mono input.
Here are a some examples of how you can get a mono output out of your stereo mixer.
