Hi all,
I am wondering what is the best way to achieve a setup where you split your on-stage source into two destinations. It could i.e. be the front desk as destination 1 and then a monitor desk as destination 2.
I am envisioning two scenarios:
1) Do a simple Y-split on the cables and then run a cable from the Y-split to each destination. However, I am concerned that i.e. phantom power coming from one desk would run into the second desk through the Y-split and either A) ruin the second desk or B) never reach the mic and thus ending up having a 'dead' condenser mic.
2) Send everything to desk X and from there on route through bus/aux/inserts to desk Y.
Any thoughts on this - or how have you been achieving this?
Thanks in advance
