Davy Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) I've ordered a Zoom B1 Four with the intention of using it mainly at home for practice. I would like to try it direct into my band's PA for use with in-ears at some point. As it's jack output only, would I need a special jack to jack cable, i.e. stereo to mono? The mixing desk is a Soundcraft UI16 which has dual(xlr/jack) inputs on channels 1-8. Edited January 6, 2020 by Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiris Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I've gigged with my Zoom MS-60B and IEM's before, I went straight into the desk with a regular mono 1/4" cable and it worked fine. The Zoom was set up with just an amp & cab model plus a compressor, no other bells or whistles. I can't see why the B1 four won't be the same. If you use some stereo effects and you want to put those through the front of house you'll need a stereo cable (or possibly 2 separate mono cables if the B1 four has dual outputs) but otherwise I don't see why it shouldn't work with just a mono cable as the MS-60B did for me.

Davy Posted January 6, 2020 Author Share Posted January 6, 2020 Your set up sounds very similar to what I would use mine for. I'll give it try with a standard 1/4" mono cable at my next gig. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
