AX8 to Friedman ASM-12 & FOH

[mikef09]

Does anyone run their AX8 this way? If so how do you connect it to both?

 

[Hoopsnake1]

You can run the out 1 (main) XLR's to FOH and the 1/4 inch TRS outs to your monitor. It's the same signal.

 

[mikef09]

So you wouldn't need to split the signal on Axe Edit? Or would you?

 

[Hoopsnake1]

No need to split the signals with Axe Edit or otherwise. They both output the same signal.

 

[mikef09]

Sorry for so many questions, so I'd just use a single TRS to XLR cable for the Friedman?

You can also use OUTPUT 2 and set it to ECHO OUTPUT 1 to have the same signal but independent volume controls

Awesome!

I don't own the Friedman - but it looks like it only has XLR input (not combo XLR/TRS). So yes, you can either run the XLR out on the AX8 to XLR input on the Friedman and use the TRS out to FOH - or like you said... use a TRS to XLR cable for the Friedman.

I use a quarter inch to XLR cable from Output 2 and XLR's from Output 1 to FOH.

I use a small mixer to blend vocals into my AX8 monitors - giving me the ability to adjust both guitar and vocal volumes from my little mixer. So I've only been using output 1 for both monitors and FOH. Good to know about the output 2 echo option! thanks Hubertus!

Likewise ^^^^^

Like most said already, use a 1/4" x XLR cable on output 2 to the friedman with it echoing output 1 and XLR for out 1 to FOH. I run it this way so that FOH or our sound duder gets the same signal every night. The output 2 is strictly just my own stage volume. The only downside is that, you lose the FX loop option for putting a real pedal in a space on the grid.

Could you please provide a link for this kind of cable ? I´m trying to find trs to xlr male cable but there is always only trs to xlr female on thomann(dot)de. thanks in advance

Try Amazon...

I use a quarter inch to XLR cable from Output 2 and XLR's from Output 1 to FOH.

This is how I do it, but with channels switched.

Works great!

Hi guys, I am planning to buy a second Friedman ASM-12 or maybe ASC-12 to stack the one on another.. The reason for that is I do not want to push single monitor that much, it is now cranked all the way before clipping occurs while using very heavy palm muting. I have read somewhere on forum that you have to put those two monitors in reasonable distance between each other to not get a feedback. As we don´t have enough space in rehearsal room, I have to really stack them.. Do you think I will get a feedback in this scenario ?.. sorry for my english and thanks in advance.. rock on /,,/ EDIT : I mean feedback of 2 monitors being to close to each other.

how can a speaker cause feedback in another speaker ? I think it must have something to do with proximity of your guitar or high volume levels ?
