Soloist with a Guest

You are a solo artist singing and playing Guitar through your L1 Model I or L1 Classic. What do you do when you have an occasional guest. This model of the L1™ has two combination microphone/line inputs with Presets so how do you add more inputs for the guest. Here are some ideas on how you can use a mixer.

Solo Setup

This is about as simple as it gets. You are running your vocal microphone into Channel 1 and your Guitar with a pickup to Channel 2. You are using appropriate Presets or each one.

Add a Mixer for the Guest

If you want to keep your original setup and just add a mixer and have your guest connect directly to it. Then run the mixer output to the Power Stand Channel 3 or 4. You will probably want to pan the mixer inputs hard to one side (for example: Left) and take the output from the same side (again: the Left output) and connect that to the Power Stand.

Advantages

This is very simple and gives the guest control over his/her own sound. It also have very little impact on the way you use the L1™

Disadvantages

The guest cannot use the Presets in the Power Stand. To share the benefit of the Presets with the guest see Mixer to Share Presets
