Let me clarify, I'm looking for some type of multiple line input distribution box (a vague term that I made up) that, for example, accepts 4 line inputs, and distributes those 4 signals into maybe 5 zones?
I guess it could be described as a 4 input x 20 output (those 20 outs are divided into 5 zones of 4) distribution box. The rear panel would have 4 TRS inputs, and 20 TRS outputs. Or, even if it was like 3 inputs x 12 ouputs (4 zones). Or like 3 inputs x 9 ouputs (3 zones). I know those are awkward i/o numbers that you don't really see, but I'm just saying those are my minimal needs.
I've heard such a box described by colleagues as a "break-out box", or "distribution box", but may or may not be the correct terms for what I'm looking for. Can anyone help me out?
Maybe it would help if I described what I'm trying to accomplish. I want to take 4 line outs from my interface and go into said "break-out box" or whatever it is, and then take the 4 outs from each of the 5 zones and go into five 4-channel line mixers (those cheapie behringer ones), and then output those to 4 cheapie behringer headphone amps. It would basically be like a ghetto Furman HR-6 headphone distribution system, without the Cat-5 cable. Anyways, if you guys could help me out, I'd really appreciate it!
