grawk Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 So I recently picked up a couple of niche audio control modules. They're unusual passive summing boxes/mixers controlled entirely by midi. It's 8 inputs, 8 outputs, and then a summed out. The 8 inputs and 8 outputs are TS unbalanced, with a TRS out that's 1-4 TS and 5-8 RS. If I were to make an XLR patch panel that has 4 XLR inputs that send each channel to pins 1/2 and 1/3 as TS cables, would this result in a 4 channel balanced mono summing mixer?

acidbasement Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Just to clarify, you're talking about splitting each XLR input, so that you'd get XL to channels 1-4 and XR to channels 5-8, and then summing them at the TRS out, which is now hopefully balanced mono instead of unbalanced stereo? I don't know if it'll work, but I'm interested to hear the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted March 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 correct I actually have 2 of them, so it'd be 4 channels mixed to left, and 4 channels mixed to right, and I'm still searching for 2 more of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
