Situation 3 – Live 2: A maximum number of individual signals for the PA, click and monitor signal
only in the headphones
In this scenario, the goal is to transmit a maximum number of individual drum signals to allow the sound
engineer to prepare a convincing mix. Here, the DrumIt Three is used as “in-ear monitor station” (stereo
master bus, metronome, external monitor signal).
Connect the DrumIt Three’s OUT1~OUT4 sockets to the external mixing console and the console’s monitor
output (AUX) to the DrumIt Three’s LINE IN socket.
The DrumIt Three’s PHONES socket transmits the drum channel, metronome and song player signals,
plus the external monitor signal (e.g. vocals, bass, guitar).
Outputs 1~4 transmit drum signals. OUT1 and OUT2 are used as direct outputs in this scenario. The
internal signals (LINE, SONG, METR) are therefore only transmitted to the PHONES socket. The hi-hat
and the cymbals share one output, as do all toms and the additional percussion channels.
