Behringer UBX 1222FX Mixer


Summary

Simplest thing that could possibly work.

You can use the XLR Balanced outputs.

Outputs

XLR Balanced +4

The nominal output of the XLR Balanced Outputs is too high for the XLR inputs on the PS1 Power Stand Channels 1 and 2. If you want to use balanced cables from the Mixer to Channels 1/2 on the L1 Classic or L1 Model I you may need to use a Pad to lower the signal level from the mixer.

{{#Click:Pad|Image:Pad.jpg|Attenuation Pad}}


Cables you can use

XLR (balanced) to XLR (balanced)

XLR to XLR, male to female

(balanced to balanced) should be fine. This is the same kind of cable you would use to connect a microphone.


You may need to use a 20 dB pad to match the output level from the mixer to the input level on the PS1 Powerstand: Channel 1 or PS1 Powerstand: Channel 2.

XLR Balanced Output to ¼ inch Phone Jack

XLR Female to ¼ Inch Tip-Sleeve

XLR Female to 1/4 Inch Tip Sleeve

This should work well with any of the ¼ Inch inputs for Power Stand Channels 1, 2, 3, 4. Those inputs are all unbalanced. There is no particular benefit to using this kind of cable as compared to the one below.

XLR (balanced) to ¼ Inch Tip-Ring-Sleeve (balanced)

XLR female to Tip-Ring-Sleeve

This should work well with any of the ¼ Inch inputs for Power Stand Channels 1, 2, 3, 4. Those inputs are all unbalanced, so there is no particular advantage to using this balanced cable compared to an unbalanced cable. There is no particular benefit to using this kind of cable as compared to the one above.

If you use the ¼ inch inputs
