Forgive me for not using the search feature today. It's 11 PM and I just got home from a day that started in the office at 7AM and ended after rehearsal for 2 different shows.
So here's my situation:
I have a powered monitor in the pit so the orchestra can hear the piano. I also pipe the piano to FOH monitors so the singers can hear and follow with the music. I also have 2 "choir" mics (phantom power on) that is piped into a upstage monitor so theorchestra can pick up on queue lines.
I am going from a KORG Keyboard to a JBL EON Powered Monitor via a 1/4TS to XLR Connector (and that part works great). Form the out of the monitor, I go to a snake via 1 piece of new xlr (i've tried mulitple pieces here). From the snake I go into my main Peavey (circa 1987) mixing board (i've also tried multi channels on the snake). As soon as a boost my pot to a respectable level to hear the piano in either the mains or the FOH monitor, I get a buzzz.... Buzz goes away once I disconnect the out of the powered monitor (either locally at the monitor or at the board) - but then I loose the piano in the mains!
Should I try a ground lift coming from out of the monitor? Is there a way I can convert the "out" to a non-powered type?
Help - I am a light guy.
