No, the volume of traffic passing through is unaffected. The headphone out volumes are only affected by the volume pots.
You can connect it to an aux send the same way you would any other powered monitor or aux connection. This effectively acts as its own monitor amplifier, eliminating the need for a separate power supply.
Yes, if you have a line out on your bass amp. The RPM's instrument input is a 1/4 plug, and the Snake/PA's output is a mic cable out. As a result, I don't believe the direct box is required.
Yes. There is also a power supply. Most guitar pedals operate on a 9v supply, so I believe it's a 15v supply. I've previously used one in a daisy chain and had no issues.

For a couple of songs, I need to hear my drummer's click track. I'd run a line with a splitter to him (I believe he uses an iPhone with a metronome app) and cut the right plug off a regular pair of cheap earphones so that I only have one plug in my ear for the 3 or 4 songs that I need to be in lock step with him (I play keyboard). I keep my powered floor monitor on my left side and the ear plug in my left ear at all times. Because I was plugging my ear on the same side as the monitor, I found it disconcerting and a little difficult to hear my playing on those songs. br>br>So, I discovered this little gem with its two channels (1 quarter inch, 1 XLR) and am now able to use the THRU jack on my powered monitor to put my monitor mix into the headphone WITH the click and adjust balance on both! The issue has been resolved! ONE THING TO KEEP IN MIND: Because the powered speaker (JBL Eon 610) output was line level, I needed to purchase an attenuator. The Rolls' input is mic level, so no matter how low you set it, you'll get a clip. I was successful in obtaining a - On Ebay, I found a 20db attenuator for under $7 shipped from an English seller. Spending $35 on a Shure is a waste of money. A 50dB attenuator is a device that reduces the amount of sound that is transmitted. Not in this case, at any rate. The low-cost version is excellent.
My drummer told me about these a while ago, and he said he used them in the studio. He clings to his ears and swears by them! br>He is absolutely correct! br>I'm not sure why I waited so long to go in- br>br>Another plus is that you can mic your amp at home (mine is a tube amp without a headphone out), have the volume in your ears as loud as you want it, then run a feed from your phone or tablet if you need to learn some new songs for the band, none of that Bluetooth mess, disconnecting all the time. br>br>.
These will be used by a church worship band in an acoustic nightmare of a venue. We use Roland electronic drums and have isolated or removed on-site recording. Amplifiers for live instruments We wanted to invest in an Aviom personal monitor system to eliminate stage monitor noise and provide our musicians with control over their monitor mix. Because I couldn't persuade our budget holders that the high cost was justified, I put together a six-station system using Rolls PM50s, PM351 Personal Monitor Amps, and a PS16 power station/distribution hub. I'm under $500 with all of the necessary cables, and we met our goal. Our sound engineer feeds the PS16 with a well-balanced mix via an aux. Each musician can then use this "More Me Box" to adjust the main mix level as well as his individual instrument level in his in-ear monitor. ear or over-the-top headphones with earphones We got rid of the wedge monitors. The boxes are well-made in the United States, simple to operate, and quiet. The quality of our work has improved dramatically. This is a product that I wholeheartedly endorse.
I was recently tasked with developing a new system on a very tight budget, where in-house development was not an option. Earphones had to be worn at all times. These in-demand in-demand in-demand in-demand in-demand in-demand in-demand in-demand The day was saved thanks to the use of ear boxes. It was originally intended to use the mic input and mic thru on each box to link multiple boxes together. The board's output was, however, far too loud, clipping the PM50s and rendering them useless in this application. To fix this, I simply used the boxes as-is and built XLR to TRS adapters to connect the board output to the proper monitor input. I just wanted to let everyone know that the XLR input has a maximum input volume of - The maximum input volume on the TRS input is 40db, according to the manual. I would have known about this problem sooner if I had read the manual.
Design is awkward. It has a great sound and plenty of headroom. However, the design is lacking because it lacks a belt clip, only works with a power supply and does not have a battery option, and mounting it on a stand necessitates purchasing a strange-looking metal plate from rolls. I was also perplexed by the fact that the monitor cable is TRS rather than XLR. Other musicians would find it strange to work with, so I could only use it with a drummer. br>br>I also didn't like using the "more me" option because it simply amplified the dry signal coming in, which isn't a pleasant sound for singers.
If you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, this is the place to This is a great, low-cost alternative to a wireless earbud if you don't need mobility. On stage, we keep it pretty low-key. Our pedal steel player needs to be able to hear himself clearly in order to stay on pitch. He has a hard time hearing the monitors because he sits in the back. Now his amp is routed through this baby, and we've patched in the monitors, allowing him to adjust the mix of both to suit his needs while keeping his amp volume low on stage. It's self-contained and has its own power source. For us, this is the ideal solution.
It does what it says. So far, it's been a pleasant little device that performs admirably. Although I have not yet mic'd directly through the unit, the monitor performs admirably. Because there is no mono/stereo switch on the unit, it falls short. It has a clip that is tucked away in an almost inaccessible location. When I first plugged in my IEMs and only had one channel working, I figured out that this clip determines whether you're in stereo or mono mode. Another issue is that it necessitates the use of an electrical outlet. In the near future, I may upgrade to a different unit and keep this one as a backup. Aside from that, it's perfectly serviceable.
Headphone amp is good, power supply is on the weak side. br>br>It's a good product. Build quality is excellent. It was a lot of noise. Unfortunately, the power supply in my shipment was defective. br>br>I'd recommend getting a headphone / in-ear extension. I was fortunate enough to possess one. I would have had to sit on my lap with this headphone amp if it hadn't been for it. There is no way to turn off the computer. br>br> br>br>I'm trying to reach out to the seller for a replacement power supply because the one that came with it was defective. (One of the outlet prongs appeared to have snapped internally. )br>br>The power supply is on the cheap side, and it could use a more robust power supply. However, it will function and suffice (assuming it does not break during shipping).
