I work for a small private school and was recently told that the middle school spring productions MUST be miked with individual lavalier mics. They would like to run 10 mics for each production. However, I don't have 10 free channels on the small board in the theater where the shows are being performed. Rather than renting a larger board, what I'd like to try is to run all the mics from one board and run that board through the theater's main board. To make a long story short, I will be using a Mackie 1402 VLZ Pro for the main board (running dual CD playback, video sound, etc...) and a Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro for the mics (10 lavs and 4 choir mics). My question is, what is the best way to chain one to the other? My initial thought is to run the outs (main or aux) of the 1604 into one set of stereo channels in the 1402. Sound is not my strong suit, so let me know if there's a better way to do this, of if it can even be done. Thanks so much!
