DL806 and DL1608 Owner’s Manual

Live Sound: Coff ee Shop
Now the band wants to pare down to play the local cafe. Because the venue size is much smaller, there is no
need to crank up a big PA, nor do you need to mic the drum set, bass cabinet or guitar cabinets. Those are
loud enough on their own!
What we’ve got lined up in this example is the lead vocal mic connected to the channel one input and his
acoustic guitar is mic’d up and connected to the channel two input. The keyboard player sings backup vocals;
her vocal mic is connected to the channel three input and her keyboard is connected to channels 7-8 via
1/4" input jacks. Channels four, ve and six are available to use for additional backup vocals, mic’ing another
acoustic guitar, mic’ing a horn section, bongos, xylophone, oud, etc...unlimited possibilities!
The L/R main outs of the DL806 connect directly to a pair of DLM8 powered loudspeakers. Aux sends 1-2
are sent to two separate DLM8 powered loudspeakers set up as monitors for the band. Or use one (or more)
aux sends to send signal to transmitters for in-ear monitors.
The house engineer’s iPad is connected (but not locked) to the DL806 where he/she will set the LR main
mix, as well as get the 2-track recording of the band’s live show.
